how would you be able to connect controllers to an iPhone?
bluethooth
bluetooth
fair
but it probably would be pretty laggy
but the screen is stupidly small
11in isnt too bad
compared to a TV? yea its bad
not many people play on a tv
compared to a switch it is pretty big
But are you, though? They're shouty boys, they swim like absolute derps, and I found recently that if I rammed their flank in the seatruck, they swim off frantically. The Squidshark is the biggest irritant I've dealt with so far, if only because of the EM burst it has.
no, the croc is dead.
Ah.
Then yes, he dead now boi
I feel in the minority in avoiding unneeded killing in these games. ^_^;; I even try to avoid snatching the fish out of the water, save for relocating some nootfish to swim around my base.
crocs killed 2 of my trivalves
I do honestly question my logic when I saw a Cheli boy where I decided a good base belonged. Love the look of the violet vents, though
only marge is allowed to kill leviathans
A thought occurs: Let's hope that they never allow tourists to 4546b. You KNOW somebody's going to start pushing buttons, particularly in specific plot locations from previous games
but the buttons wouldn't do anything
There is one button still active. A great way to moderate visitors
yeah but no one has the virus
True, but after the translation algorithms, what's to say they couldn't give it new directives?
It wouldn't be hard to turn it back on and aerosolize the virus found in the plot zone
What should I use for the bio reactor?
Root Pustules.
how can I plant them?
You can't, however there is more than enough to keep you thriving on the frozen sector.
thanks

You can get a bunch of Gelsacks in an external growbed and use them. Individually they are only average, but you can pack 16 of them into the bioreactor which will last a while.
What about fevered peppers?
Fevered Peppers are just good for sustenance.
sus
Gel sacks are the best plantable flora for bioreactor, at 245 per slot
Fevered Peppers are at 175 per each slot, but if you're going for indoor plants Preston's Delights give 210 so they're more efficient
ight
not bad not bad
laughs in 300k power
i have a tower of large rooms contining 4 nuke reactors each
How have you not noticed they make a humming sound before Krafty
i keep my volume down because pda is so loud at times and jumpscares me
There is a voice volume slider
there is?
Yes
alr guess i will lower that then
i mess with the grapchics too much to focus on those things lol
Nice
hey guys
does anyone know the code on steam to get in early acces? I want to hop in the release of the earlier storyline
This is a really good idea! 👍🏻
is that sarcasm
I don't know
oof
But I love to play it
try the code "belowzeroearlyacces" if ur on steam
What will it do?
give u access to the early acess versions icluding the old storyline
its in the name
Just found out if you go in experiment mode without code it us sorta developer mode
Thamks man
np
Spawned in a shadow leviathan
🤷
between ice worm and shadow leviathan
Lol
i like shadow worm better tho
The shadice leviathan
hmm
Lol
the shadow leviatathan about to do some 'shady' buisness
Yes
Robin: sees a shadow leviathan above her
Also Robin: casually saying "that didnt go as plannned"
L-
That would be a funny meme

Does anybody know of a levithian right between the ||purple vents|| ||delta|| and ||other tree like biome||??? Or was it just a lose ||chelicerate||
Cause I was on the safe path to the ||lily pad islands||
They're Chelicerates.
ya i dono ¯_(ツ)_/¯
also i have an idea on how to make infinite energy
if u somehow make ||recyclotron|| before moonpool
jus get a ded power cell and then recycle it, re-craft it at 100% capacity
I don't particularly like using exploits. <__<
Of course, I'm not trying to discourage others from using exploits. Y'all paid for the game, y'all should be able to do what you want in the game.
Exploits are bad tho
well i mean exploits ruin the fun of the game
cuz you can get everything free
and there would be no purpose to the game
2nd playthru, you can ruin what you like
i just found out you can make a portable house out of the seatruck🙀
Yes. And it's awesome!
Did you scan the Test Override Module on her table?
hard to miss, but the truck upgrade is easy to miss
Also... when did they "fix" the placement of that upgrade?! It was on the edge of the table for me.
Guys
I still want to go in early acces with the code but it's not working
Or do I need to disable expiremental?
click the button, then pick an EA version other than experimental
The list should have more than 6 items in it
You're missing an "s" at the end of "access"
ah yes.
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
the one you want is probably EA8.1
Average day in Below Zero
uh... no lol
just a giant chelicerate going for a fly
yes
this image is from very far away but if i get any closer the big chelicerate disappears, so this is as accurate of a size comparison I can give you
big fish is hungry
how to add music to disco box
PC only: Add mp3s to (windows music folder)\Uknown Worlds\Subnautica
Is 8.1 really the one to recommend though? It doesn't change much but from my memory it already has a big change in hoverzone3.
as far as I know, also labeled, it's the latest of the old story
you recoomend ea8? what
8.1 exists because people in experimental wanted to keep the old story.
Yes. It's like an extra game
And since the changeset was superior already they couldn't switch back to 8.0.
So the only purpose of 8.1 was for that time, and it stayed.
Doesn't EA 8.1 have the temperature mechanics?
I don't understand how 8.0 is different
EA8.1 has features from EA9 iirc.
Possible, 8.1 was just the experimental version when they decided to rework the story.
It is not a big deal, but I think you probably have a big pool instead of hoverzone3.
Because since it was the experimental version they already did some change for the new story there.
By big pool, do you mean the massive chunk of land that was cut out? XD
Yes.
I remember that. Still gives me a few laughs to this day. I dunno why it's funny to me.
I just checked and hoverzone is still there in 8.1.
yes, what to do after
Have you passed by any Mercury II wrecks?
If so, you're gonna wanna make a Laser Cutter and go there to get the PPU.
thx what after
After plugging in your new T.O.M Jubert and sending the communications tower into test mode, the Prawn Pilot will give you directions to her Greenhouse. You're gonna want a make a compass and beacon since she doesn't give you a beacon to it automatically.
I have found 0 of the fragments i need trom purple vents
thx

What are you trying to look for?
Sleepr
That is in the crevasse under the Chelicerate.
Thats all for today folks
XD
Booster tank must be extremely broken when swimming at the surface, no?
You can no longer boost on the surface.
They removed that in EA9.
Lol I'm assuming it was totally busted
In fact the booster tank right now is just kinda garbage.
Is there a limit to the length I can make a sea truck
Nope.
No.
Alright I’m making a seatruck as long as the map
The speed decreases tho 📉
Okay
It would be funny
Especially in survival
I just hope there’s enough titanium and lead in the map
for doing this, why not use "nocost" cheat
I HATE those trap plant thingys
Those the ones that pull you down into them?
spiky trap yes. Very popular things
My record is 150 modules.
Knife em.
Yeah, saw one consume an entire Sea Monkey once.
do fauna attacks the seatruck if the player is inside it but the seatruck itself is off?
does anyone want to play below zero sometime, I find it kind of hard to progress and it's kind of boring to play alone
like it was with cyclops
If you aren't in the pilot seat, it won't attack
i need help, my seatruck keeps getting stuck and only moves again when i push it from the behind
uh huh. Where did you get Below Zero?
I bought it from steam
Version? top right on your screen
april 2022
that's experimental. Either turn experimental off in properties, Beta, or update it to 47679 released today
ok thank you
got it, i was missing a thermal thing for the truck
thermal charge? nice, but there's not many slots to put it
welp, thats what make it fun
choices ((or abuse it like with cyclops where you could just store it and change when needed))
cof
but with two ion power cells, it will drive for days
ah, indeed it dont really consume power
tbh i really liked the seatruck after a few rides with it
I'm kind of at a point where I'm not sure what to do in the story, I've ||uncovered 2 of the 3 parts of alan, and I've explored phi robotics center, outpost zero, and arctic spires so far||
so are you missing the organs?
There's the ||frozen leviathan, optional, that you optionally also can cure. it's in the tree area bottom left of your Phi map||
is that all that's left in the story lmao?
Organs are in crystal caves. More detail ||go down a big crown of crystals at 670m depth. East means down in this cave||
no
I've usually gotten cues for the other two. Is finding organs unguided?
the storyline that ends the game is alan
You get clues in voice messages. no beacons. You get more clues as you get near
So you are meant to explore
so after I get the organs the story is basically over?
since alan would be ready to take on his form
no. But you are at 85% then, I suppose
it's really difficult to find without these hints, and also difficult to craft. Because of where
Ah I see. Well I'll just naturally explore then
with the hint that it's in crystal caves but that's kinda obvious bc of how deep it is
Anyone know what to do when custom jukebox songs don't work?
do they appear in the display? you want plain mp3 format only
sorry but wdym phi map
Lord knows I use that map to navigate the surface.
I just go by memory
This plan works so well the first time
So unless the game updates and changes everything I'll be okay
@eternal garnet any idea where this would be on the map lol I'm kinda lost
tryna get to ||frozen leviathan||
i wanna take a pic with cardi b inside my cardigan
Yea they don't play tho
got to be mp3, no aac or m4a or something. 44kHz sampling is the usual for an mp3. Not sure it matters
There really isnt much of a story in BZ. The ||AL-AN|| story is pretty well signposted but the sister story is really found by stumbling across stuff
ahh yes
so
i uninstalled bz to free space and i havent played it in a while
and im getting bored so im gonna play it again
BZ's strenghs really are in the great base building aspects and wandering around and looking at the really really beutiful stuff
al-an
public static void fan club
bro i accidentaly found a architect artifact before i found al-an
did i break the game
nice
i scanned
cool
did i break?
good for you
what?
"Drink soy milk, oat milk, rice milk, almond milk don't steal milk from a cow"
im vegetarian
no, that's fine
soy milk is bad!!!
I am legit addicted to cow milk
gross
same i drink every day
aaanyway, off topic
Anyone know where to find Spiral Plant Clippings?
ya. have you seen the huge vent garden?
yup
good. Inside it.
Yes.
Thanks Ive been seatrucking everywhere trying to find it lol
I went in it already lol just didnt understand why I could
cryptosuchus is a crip
please no gif here
awww
Made it
are you mod
whats that
no, I'm a tester. I can moderate also
sweet
Vent Garden
make me tester plsssss
Sure. Apply in, I think announcements
okeh thx
Can I grow the Spiral Plant Clippings?
yep
ventgarden
i think theres special dialogue if you beat the game w/out al-an
i saw it on a speedrun video
er. You can't beat the game without alan. Or is it a glitch?
speedrunners do weird stuff
really? it heals fast
i hope so
if it's bad, go see doc
I did, he put antibiotics and coloring in it. To see the scratch
its like a tiny mark
Didn't really need it, I think
did you know, if you take away pain, people lose toes and get so many bruises. This can happen to diabetics
ok, off topic
I understand
what can you make with ion cube
@eternal garnet
ion power, later teleport fuel
okay thank you
cursed
cheli took my first death
actually crashfish did
ngl im terrified of the cheli leviathan
not because of how it looks
just the dmg
so
i just put ion power cells in my seatruck
how long will it last (im assuming 5 full charges)
yes. 5x. How long? Yes.
5x nice
this is #below-zero-chat not #subnautica-chat
if i may just make my exit...
too late! Oh, the humiliation
My first death was a gasopod...
death by farts..
Dehydration for me smh
I always call them Giggle Farters anymore.
They're like toddlers. They drop their gas bombs, giggle, and swim away.
This is Below Zero right?
Yes
||If Mercury 2 got hit by the gun on the mountain island from the first game, that means Mercury 2 came to 4546B before Riley, because when Riley left, he disabled the gun||
ya, but I don't thing we know exactly when that ship crashed.
Maybe a few years before Riley came?
Maybe that's the reason why the Aurora came to 4546B
the reason the aurora came to 4546B is ||to build a phase gate and a secondary secret mission of finding out what happened to the degasi||
Why is the seatruck always getting stuck
If it stuck i always get out then fix unload both poer cells then load it again in order to fix it but it always get stuck every 20 seconds
Show a screenshot.
I forgot to screenshot it.I just turn off my laptop
I see. Update the game, I believe your laptop doesn't have a connection all the time.
The issue was introduced there:
46631 /main 2022-01-12T15:49:20.050000Z Andreas Urwalek BZ-2908 - fixed seatruck falling when terrain gets streamed out
And fixed there:
47643 /main 2022-05-09T11:27:14.668000Z Andreas Urwalek BZ-3119 - fixed seatruck setting itself to kinematic while piloting
Only on the experimental build.
The reason why the Seatruck stops, is that the world isn't settled.
And when the world wasn't settled, the cabin was set kinematic (not affected by physics).
The fix doesn't make it kinematic while piloting.
Which also means goodbye the workaround with the Seatruck being beached on an ice shelf, if you unload the area it won't fall anymore. :þ
||Judging by how the whole Mercury ship is overground with roots and has tons of rust in it, it’s safe to assume that it was a couple years before the Aurora crashed||
I still don’t get how people do that honestly xD
If you have no cabins, sure. But with them it’s just impossible 👀
As someone who has almost beached a Seatruck with one cabin on it I can confirm it's possible with at least one
Hax it's obvious ban him now lol
Its called cheats not hax
Hmm
I'm sad we can't put posters up in the interior of the seatruck but I understand why we can't
personally i dont like the seamoth
I like the cyclops a little more than sea truck purely because of the challenge of piloting it and being able to build inside
But I still really like the sea truck
i made a chart if you want to compare and make your decision based on the factors i listed
subnautica logic when going in seatruck through back when its facing down
Search for wrecks
There is always metal salvage near the dead ships
This is from below zero
oh
metal salvage can be found...
idk really
I am playing the original storyline from it. From early acces februari 2020
ive found it before
oh umm
Ah that make sense, sorry my bad
It is orignally near the dead mercury ships. But in early acces not
Search in the mercury 2 ship
Oh they are not
Idk where to find them
I need it to start up the radio tower
well thats something thats in the current version
but i dont remember needing metal salvage
Well. In current the radio tower works you need to sabotage it
In early acces the radio tower is damaged
hm
usually i think of metal salvage as scrap
It is lol
not repair material
is the mineral scanner in early access
your best bet is going to mercury 2 and using that to find the salvage
Oh yeah. Thanks
oh its called a mineral detector but idc
In the old story I remember one is in Purple Vents.
funny im just near a purple vents biome but its not info for me
Where
north meatie gonna help ya
the old story had a bug where it appears you have to repair it twice. You don't, it's a visual bug
Check near the pile of scrap there.
not assuming their gender
What does that even mean? :þ
Where is the pile of scrap? Near the mercury?
I don't have a screenshot sadly. Between the two Mercury wrecks from the new story (I don't even remember if they are in the old one), you have a bunch of scrap.
or, run "nocost", repair, then nocost again to turn it off
oh whatever version your playing on
How.
It should be there though.
yes good idea
I don't remember where they placed the second.
F8, F3 to get console toggle. click disable console
Because at some point you needed two, then only one later.
press shift+enter and type nocost
no, not in EA
I'll take a screenshot of the place I'm talking about.
Oh thanks
after that just Enter to open console
Ik the rest I think
do you have to actually enable the console in older versions
OH near those seatruck modules
No.
Oh, do you mean the F3 menu? If so yes, it is shift + enter since quite recently.
The ribbon plant is in the caves in the shallows or in Twisty Bridges.
They're at the start.
in little hollows
You just find little caves and you'll find them.
They glow green
near the lifepod in little caves. also in twisty bridges
vent gardens
that's too far bro
the vent garden are those other plants.
ive been to the world edge before
no, not the spiral plant. ribbon plant. Battery plant
oh
L-
oh
how to put your seatruck on land:
- why would you
- dont
is that the radio tower
ye
i thought i got into major spoilers there
That's an interesting version you have there.
yeeeees
Ahh yes. I sure do love abr-2022-47435
abr-2022 is probably just because of a different language.
you can scan some other things. Mainly meant for the scanner room
that is not the issue.
I know, but I'm telling Slicey xD
Pretty sure you're talking to everyone here.
:3
The emoji is no longer accurate.
somebody told me whack em' with a knife to scare em' off
ik
yes i just made docking module lets go
Pretty poggers if I'm gonna be honest.
I searched the whole place there
only boxes, seatruck module fragments and a databox
this moment I will just do nocost cheat
What are you trying to look for?
I think: metal salvage in EA8
The old radio parts.
Metal Salvage wasn't added until EA10, right?
the special salvage was there. story item
but I wouldn't worry too much, things are broken in EA. use nocost
Oh
Welp im going nocost moder
Wait. What version are you playing?
just turn it off after. it's a toggle
They're on EA8.0.
Wasn't the Purple Vents part replaced with a Wiring Kit?
I remember it being inside the wrecks. But no matter, and it was long ago
hey problem. the nocost cheat is on but I still need wreck salvage
ouch. Is there a command to repair this Ignis?
Ayo bro why r u playing such an old build
It's in the same place where you can the ppu fragment.
fun storyline
Because old story is interesting
Hmm ok ig
There is the techtype yes. Perhaps it is still on the wiki.
what is it
shipwrecksalvage iirc
item rocketradiotowersalvage1
I don't remember, there were two of them, but later they just removed the need for one.
Yes that.
Oh this then...
I haven't played the EA6-8 story in quite a long time.
wouldnt it be item scrapmetal
no, different item
ohhh I know now
you need to get in the mercury ship. with lasercutter cut the sealed door and get in there
and there is a sealed thing you also need to cut and that is the shipwreck salvage
sounds familiar
One was definitively at Purple Vents.
In the screenshot above, I remember that clearly.
the "2" is labeled as purple vents on the page
Nahh... looks fine to me.
oh nooo, it's gone dutch. What a terrible bug
ah yes. Like the parallell unit now
Just... like what I said.
when I had to find that it was a maze for me
and NOW the cutscene is playing
after 4 times I went pass this
Yeah... grabbing the Shipwreck Salvage is what triggers it.
ouch the old basin. It's redesigned now
I went to go to the glacial basin but there wasn't a dock
yeah. the entrance is underwater
I forgor in EA it's only the glacial connection
@eternal garnet im passing a green crystal cave. am I going the good way to jeff?
Once again where is the greenhouse
Should be on the easternmost iceberg
its hard to find the exact iceberg tho, took me over an hour
Played below zero again not as bad as I remembered
Took me 2
Don't go southeast if your gonna go start at your lifepod. Start at Delta island. Search every iceberg there
Also on a iceberg there is a argitect satilite. A artefact
Ahh yes argitects
Why is it not letting me place this large room partition?
Is there something attached to the outside of the wall?
That's good
that's weird though
hey I get a black screen on launch and can only move my cursor, not sure why
but it never loads
I had that issue with a game before I believe I fixed it by validating the game files through steam
If not I would recommend reinstalling
that's not what they say
I tried reinstalling multiple times already, so unfortunately that didnt work
did you uninstall, wipe the app folder, reinstall
Light version of this: Remove/move the savedGames folder. It's in SNappdata in the steam version
just hide (rename) that folder, try the game
Lines on screen what to so?
show us
frame time graoh
yes. diagram is ms to render a frame
I know F1 and F3 are debug overlays
the gold rock is yellow and smooth, looks like bread
Each rock can only give two items, one being titanium
Not in some biomes, like around delta
you have finded the 1° alien part|?
ok
you can go to that way
and start smashing rocks
nop
under water
just swims in any direction and if you finds these stones break them
yep
yep
That's just bad luck
you can get gold silver and titanium whit them
You should not be playing that version. Major bugs. Stick to regular steam or Epic versions
i think is a pirate version 
You said it, not me 😄
Thought that was bread for a second.
Make sure to scan everything you can including rocks they will tell you chance of everytime you go to smash after that
Can people be banned on this server for playing pirated versions? Like it’s against the rules (and illegal) so it makes sense right?
yeees.
Not me playing it via my dad's account 😎
Someone above supposedly pirated below zero. Might not have but it’s pretty suspicious to be playing an older, unstable release of the game.
Their name was CiscoSonic I think
Ayo guys... y'all might wanna re-read rule 8.
oops. Ok discussion ended
I just don't wanna see y'all get into any trouble.
Yup lol
Slicey MVP

Yup saved us on that one
Forgot about that one. Yes thank you slicey
Thanks

sanity defined
I’m tryna make a seatruck as long as the map
how can i finish this game
I haven't found any place to go down yet
Deep purple vents or deep lily pad biome
Deep Lilypads doesn't lead to the place that Deep Purple Vents does
Deep lily leads to deep purple which leads down
I haven’t been keeping up with the game for a while, has the final update released or have they announced it’s date?
it was released, complete, 12 months ago
Gotcha. Is there a reason why the graphics/surface textures feel so much more blurred compared to the original game?
no... Set graphics to high if you can. And don't "pierate" - the pirated versions are very buggy
I’m on high and it’s on steam, so idk what’s wrong
I dunno. Compare
(open original)
just chuck it in an outdoor growbed. Slice it to get seeds
so @cobalt forge how did you buy this game? From where?
Does it open in steam?
yeah. Wrong answer, bye
thats Low texture. Try toggling from high-low-.high
Everything on high, and I went into nvidia and turned everything to quality
mmm... reset the nvidia override, and do it in game
didn't work for me
press: F8, F3. Click Texture quality 4
You are on 1, says screenshot
if it says already on 4, click 3, 4
I don't know why, but using some brute force here
it's possible you have to do that on reload
weird
@vocal birch what? not here
Ok
or it's about 3. Depending on how you count
hey it would be neat if we had a mp3 channel for below zero jukebox
a place where we could send cool musics already in mp3 so all you need to do is dowload and place
who's gonna check copyright? does not sound fun
ah yeah i forgot that, official discords servers have problem with copyright, right?
We can't be illegal here
I don’t think Discord is going to like it yeah 😅
So it'd create mod work, and that's prob not a good idea
yeh i got it
Anyone here used the below zero decorations mod yet? Does it let you plant all those implantable flora that bz lacks?
what bz decorations mod
There is no decorations mod for BZ.
i`m Waitimg for that
Am I allowed to post links? I can link to where a bz decorations mod is
you should have the required permissions
A good portion of the Subnautica modders isn't on Nexus any more though :p
BZ has a lot of
Weird decisions in its gameplay compared to the original imo
Like, as an example
Was the Oxygen Plant created as a form of idiot-proofing cuz not enough people realized they could refuel oxygen from Brain Coral?
Or is that me just being pretentious
I feel like the oxygen plant is simply an art choice to not have to use the same asset as in the original.
So the weird part is it’s on GitHub but not on nexus. It’s posted on GitHub along with the decorations mod for subnautica, while the nexus page only has the subnautica mod. For fear of it possibly being malicious, I’ll download and test it myself at home first.
I won’t post it now
Did the Sonic dude get banned?
I really just don’t want to get banned or get anyone hacked so I’ll let y’all know if it works
I mean
Who's to say reusing assets is a bad thing, especially in a sequel so closely related to the original
Quite frankly I got mad when I saw things that were only visually ported from the original and weren't functional anymore
||Maghda's base|| and iirc one of the ||Architect caches|| have Bulbo Trees, and you wouldn't believe how salty I was when I realized I couldn't harvest them lol
I opened to conversation gaps
Idk you can check if they have roles
I searched Sonic and he wasnt one of the three
The last part is something completely different though 😛
Yeah he’s banned. L pirate
Sonic was banned yes.
Yeah same with medkit fabricators. Even if I don't need either of them, I don't get why you would add the asset and then just not have functionality
Gorge toy?
Oh so im not stupid those really dont work?
Thom, tell Maida to give me her gorge toy.
It is pretty weird I’ll admit. I’m just more salty I can’t plant all the amazing flora bz has to offer
I was wondering why they would'nt scan
Those are completely cut from the game.
wait but I found one? it was just static though and not scannable
I didn't even realize they were gone but now that I know I'm mad about that too
I didn't use them too often cuz they're kinda expensive (really I tended to avoid Fiber Mesh in-general cuz of how inefficient it was to harvest) but they were still good to have
Cut as in, they are completely unusable for the player.
It's definitely one of my complains as well though, there are enough things in the original that could have easily been used that were there before.
Or scanning glass windows
I liked this feature.
I think medkit fabricators were a little broken. Just make a kelp farm ez
Wdym?
It makes no sense to me to have it be by default there in the original for years and then suddenly change it up lol.
Having to scan glass windows to get glass corridors was nice.
So did they remove the Leaf Wall thing from being able to be scanned or placed by the player for buiding?
You can scan the ones in her ||greenhouse.||
No, it still exists. One of my old bases had them
Meanwhile Seamoth is still functional in the files, you just have to use commands to spawn it
I can see what they were going for trying to merge the Seamoth and Cyclops into the Sea Truck, and I like the whole adding-cabooses mechanic a lot
But it just doesn't quite land for me
I'd love it alongside the classics but it can't fully replace them
I found some but they were nonscannable
Yeah... I don't know why the ones at Omega Lab are not scannable.
Someone needs to make a mod pack that fixes every single problem bz has. I wonder what it would look like
Give the thing a sonar upgrade and I'll never use the Seamoth again. XD
"problem" is subjective, I've seen so many not agree with each other about BZ 😛
I prefer the Sea truck over seamoth
just still wish the cyclops was around I miss that thing so much'
Being able to craft pretty much anything at almost any point is a really powerful mechanic.
Ik the devs' stance on backporting BZ content to the original game
But have they said anything about forward-porting?
They would need to change up a good part of the map to get the Cyclops being worth it.
"forward-porting"?
Yeah. I really don’t think the cyclops would fit.
Just pop that bad boy into the Water Void.
Fits perfectly.
Yes, but no Slicey xD
Mods porting missing Subnautica Classic assets forward into BZ
Wouldn't that be a form of copyright?
It's not their assets.
It's UWE's.
I do agree BZ is just to small in spaces for the Cyclops
What they (or modders) need to do is to push the world edge back a thousand meters in the south east direction and add like four more unique biomes in the empty space. Then give some of them deep (cave) variants that lead into the ||crystal caves|| and easy, bz fixed. Ofc it won’t be easy at all but it would improve the game a lot. Bz’s small map has always bugged me.
Honestly I feel like a good workaround for the whole copyright thing would be developing direct cross-compatibility/dependency somehow, pulling files directly from the other game's folders
So you would need both games installed for the mods to function correctly
Something like that is absolutely theoretically possible, Gmod merges like a dozen and a half different games that way
And I realize it'd take a lotta work but I bet it'd be worth it
I don't think I've seen anything about it.
But who knows what they will do 😛
We at first also didn't expect them to back port base pieces ¯_(ツ)_/¯
What do y’all think about making all new biomes for bz? Like with the suggestion to add them above ^
For the few things where it makes sense to do this I think it's a lot of work for not much in return.
No mod has so far truly created a new biome, not sure if it will happen any time soon. It's a lot of work to create something unique and also technically pretty challenging I believe (don't quote me on that).
Editing/adding terrain is currently not possible for SN or BZ.
But it would definitely be cool 😄
ohh mods can do that. Pretty sure
Alright my Discord just crashed lol.
But yes, they can.
Just no one has done it so far.
XD
what about this https://www.nexusmods.com/subnautica/mods/504
That's not the same as adding a new biome though.
fair
Well let’s think about that for a moment. You would need two main parts: a new map and new models (flora and fauna) you can add in your own models and can code them to do stuff. That is very much doable. The map problem is an issue. While you can import the subnautica map into bz, and the bz map into subnautica (as aci has showed), it’s not easy making a new map. We would just need to find out how to edit the map using an external software, then replace the old map with the new one.
I have basically no coding background, so take my input lightly
Oh god that text wall I wrote has so many grammatical errors
There's a WIP map editor, although I do see the person behind it left the modding Discord. So not sure how well that will end..
thousands of dev hours, and no pay. cool
Didn't someone make a "real Void biome"
Added terrain and a bunch of Cove Trees and other random flora to the bottom of the Void
Yeah. Isn’t it the pearlin void mod?
Is that what it was called?
I'm pretty sure the mod developer has said it wasn't real Subnautica terrain but instead something else.
I believe it also didn't nicely blend in on the edges of the two.
Maybe, I just saw it in a video once, didn't think to check for a download at the time
But, all we need to do is ask unknown worlds what software they used to make the bz map. Then we take the map file, export it to whatever software they used, make our own adjustments, and re-add it to bz (with the custom models of the flora and fauna, of course)
It has been asked before and they can't release it to us.
The software they have used years ago is licensed, they weren't able to provide it to modders because of that, despite essentially refactoring all of the code from it 😅
That's why someone was making their own editor for it.
I'm not sure, I don't see them in the modding discord server any more though.
Oof. Maybe someone should get in contact with them to figure it out. Or not. Idk
It’s just so sad that bz had developement issue that stunted it’s growth. I’m sure if they had way more time they could’ve made a giant map. Not that they needed it, but it would’ve been cool.
I mean they could have made it a lot bigger if they wanted to, they chose not to however.
They said that they won’t really be touching bz right? All content is put in, now just bug fixes.
It has had it's full release yes, so I don't think it will see any major changes.
Especially not now that they are hiring people for a new game, I would assume at least.
Minecraft: oh? You stopped adding content after full release?
Yeah. They are making a new game in the subnautica universe. They called it project m right? They copyrighted “moonbreaker” awhile ago so that could be the new game they are making
I heard somewhere it was a turn-based strategy game, but that doesn’t sound true.
https://twitter.com/LiamTart/status/1511698719556648967 says it all I guess.
Throwing this out there - does anybody want to work on our exciting new scifi IP, or the next game in the @Subnautica universe at @UnknownWorlds? Looking for environment artists and material artists. Send me a DM if you're interested! Fully remote, great pay/comp etc.
304
you are mixing stuff up. They are making a new game outside the subnautica universe.
and THEN possibly a sequel
Ah, I see
Makes sense now. Yeah I can’t see a turn-based strategy game fitting into the subnautica universe
So hyped for a subnautica sequel. I wonder how amazing og subnautica would be if they re made it from the ground up based on all the experience they got
Like original subnautica + the graphics and quality of bz = best game ever
I feel so bad righ now I just hit a Sea Monkey in the Sea Truck
They deserve it for taking my tools
One of my main grievances with og subanautica was that it looked like a video game. I mean, everything felt dead. When I look at the arctic kelp caves, for example, the roots bend and twist in organic shapes to perfectly fit into the terrain geometry. It feels like they were meant to be there. When I look at og subnautica, it doesn’t feel the same. The only thing that comes close are the blood kelp roots, which were modeled specially to fit the floating islands, but they don’t feel as organic. Every biome I’m og subnautica has this problem, and it makes it look almost ugly to me. This, paired with how slowly the geometry loads in, makes subnautica just look bad compared to bz. Both are great, but graphics are just much better for bz.
Evil. Leave
They stop taking tools after a while
Has anyone felt this way?
i feel that way
bz graphics are amazing compared to og subnautica
but i feel like some story elements in the og game are a little better than bz,, both are amazing games tho
And then they start taking it again after .. I can’t spoil
This is true. Bz wasn’t as compelling to me I feel. Both are great
Bz was way more optimized. I would get bad frames in subnautica with medium graphics, and would only get the same frame rate in bz when everything was on high.
yeah i play on xbox and for me bz runs a lot better than the og game
Ofc that’s over kill for me, so I never actually had everything on high. This meant I had nice frames without the lag
Mind you, I use a laptop. Yeah, a “gaming” laptop. Even it can run bz well.
yeah i feel like bz just runs a lot better than subnautica in general. it even runs better than some other games i play
same
Goodbye 4546B.
Time to leave that ocean.
Hello BZ.
Surprise! Back to 4546B
Oh I figured..but still.
Curious though:
||Since the rocket had storage at the end of subnautica, did it matter if you took anything with you?||
nope.
BZ is on 4546B, but you play as someone else (who talks)
would be nice to be able to have mods on console
So will I find the ||Parallel Processing Unit through the Story Yes or **** I am not looking for spoilers. (For the Test Override Module)||
in the ||mercury 2|| wrecks
Yes. Tiny hint in a PDA about bird maintenance
Alterra you are 191820219201292102192 space bucks in debt
You need a thermos
bz purchased from the current steam sale, can't wait to play it tomorrow!
@lofty rune Is there ||only two in the shallow part of the wreck?||
thermos
what shallow part?
ah ok
Shluld I go build the dudes body or wait
get it
Is it the Ond of the game
or actually... finish sam story if you havent
yes
go find the ||frozen leviathan||
Where man
in the glacial basin, past phi
The snake thing?
its somewhere in the purple land biome
At the end of the bridge
no, the other side, where phi robotics is
no...?
snowfox
Dang
and something you'll find later
I lost mine lol
more like snow💩
||where Sam worked||?
Where is this dang leviathan
I remember at the start of bz development when the devs or us were hyping up the above water gameplay, and wow, did that fall flat.
Banda alguien sabe cómo conseguir la piel de alan?
guys does anyone know where to get alan's skin?
in the arctic spires (past the bridge) where the ice worms are
thank you very much friend
follow the green pipe thing if you find it
Ya, its kinda hard to find. Really the Sam part of the story is not well signposted. You can finish the game without resolving Sam's story at all.
You don't NEED a snowfox to go into Artic Spires I actually did it on foot becasue I was stupidly stubborn
you do need that cold weather suit however
anyone playing multiplayer
Go to #subnautica-modding or #subnautica-chat because this is below zero
Below zero has no multiplayer
below zero wont be getting multiplayer
nitrox (multiplayer mod) doesnt support bz, and isnt going to
Yoooo tomorrow is bz's 1 year anniversary
I got the game on release and it was one of the best gaming experience
My best gaming experience is subnautica
||bruh why doesnt robin question it when alan says 'we will give you some time to process' my immediate reaction would be 'wait there's more than one of you in my head?!'||
She probably knows that from xenoworx
Like maybe xenoworx discovered ancient ||architect|| bodies and discovered that theyre made up of multiple intelligent organisms that give the ||architects|| their superintelligence
from what i understand, they where hive minds
constantly refering to themselves us 'we' or 'us'
common thing hive minded species do in sci-fi stuff
rarely ever if it at all, view themselves/refering to themself as i or me
also is it me, or is the sea glide in bz slower than subnautica
yea, they are def a hive mind
Is there any way to transfer my game pass version save to Steam version
yes...devs did a good job
um what
Did stupid things with console command
just bought below zero i hope this is good
So can drones work on land?
Story isn't as good as the first game but its still a good experience and really beautiful.
You mean camera drones? I dont think so
You need ||to use a Pengi robot and go into the small holes that only they fit intl The all have an arial outside them||
Found it
Ik but finding it was soo hard
Ya, I have to admit I have in and looked up a map
I found it bu frustration rn
To save you more frustration headaches ||you have to put the cure into a robot at the Frozen L, and the remore control the robot to administer it.|| Its pretty unintuitive, to say the least
I also orphabed a lot of stalker baibies
Ik ik
Now where is tgat pesky cave
The sound is good too
They are the reason I genuinely prefer to go through the Artic spires on food. Less attacks than on a Snowfox, even with that upgrade
Of course, I am insane
So ||Paravan is dead?||
yep
Magic 8 ball says yes
I found his death sadder than Sam's death.
I know. Controversial. But the man never even had the chance to say sorry to his kids.
Yep
ya I can see that aspect
how to get into the seatruck but not in the driver's seat
Is it just the seatruck cabin or have you added modules?
if you have modules on it, the floor needs to be mostly level
