I know this takes place on an alien ocean world, but how alien is it, exactly?
Like, does it go full Cthulhu or is it grounded in what we would consider reality?

The alien fish are based off Earth fish. The underwater ocean world has some fairly alien sections but it doesn't feel too unlike our own with kelp forests, coral reefs.

I keep thinking I'll get back into Subnautica but then I remember how irritating the early game is, especially now that you have to unlock *rooms* of all things. I'm also guessing that there's still no map.

I build several bases all over the map as points of refuel and for when I want to stay somewhere else while exploring. I use the bobthebuilder console command code for all blueprints and unlimited resources so I can just make what I want.

>>382495205
actually, casuals would build bases where they look cool. a robust player would find out the best location for nearby resource harvesting and the least amount of travel time to any biome in the game.

>>382494860
did they change anything shown in the webm?

>>382495281
the sparse reef is actually a pretty good location if you're just after resources, it's basically 100% safe, there's absolute loads of basic resources everywhere, and it borders the sea treader's path, the crash zone and the grand reef for late game resources
not very comfy though

Where's the best place to go about looking for moon pool fragments?

Having played parts of it, I am forcing myself to not go any further since I don't want to spoil myself by getting everything and then starting all over again when the game gets out of EA so soon. Feels bad man.

>>382495539
grand reef or mountains, depending on whether you hate reapers or warpers/crabsquids more

>>382495464
if you want just resources and don't care about travel time, then the best spot is the junction between sparse reef, sea treader's path, and blood kelp trench. people who complain about copper, go find sea treaders and follow BEHIND them, every step they take will leave outcroppings that can drop lithium or copper.

pretty solid exploration/crafting/deep-sea horror game with god-tier art direction, questionable balance decisions and miserable optimization. It's worth ten bucks if you can run it well, and the devs have been hinting at a comprehensive optimization patch within the next few months.

What is the highest depth you can venture to?

>highest depth

>>382499132
You're the survivor of a crashed spaceship on an alien ocean planet, you explore and collect resources and blueprints from wreckage to build your base and vehicles. There's a story to the game with various setpieces, but the rate at which you explore and complete the main story is mostly up to you.
Unlike Terraria, Minecraft, etc. there's no procedural generation, so there's less replayability. The upside of course is that everything is hand-crafted.

The story content is like 90% complete, but the final pieces haven't been added yet. The next 3-4 months are going to be dedicated to finishing the story and doing a big optimization/polish pass.

For $10 is a good deal, but it's so close to leaving early access you might just want to wait a few more months.
There is a plan to increase the price when it leaves early access in Sep/Oct though, so it's not a bad idea to simply buy it now for $10 and wait until later to play it.
There's also going to be a pet fish that follows you around added for early-access buyers.

Yes, highest depth, meaning the highest value (in terms of meters) from the surface you can go to,

>>382499985
iirc the deepest your exosuit can go is 1700m before it starts taking hull damage

technically you can go deeper than that but you won't live very long and there's nothing to see beyond that

there is an expansion planned so they might add even deeper areas in the future

there used to be a pit that went down to like 2.5k, but I'm not sure if it's still there, and they recently changed how oxygen works so I'm pretty sure it'd be impossible to get that deep now anyway

>>382500505
>put me in the screencap
Oh fuck off. You know exactly what I meant. When i'm talking about depth I no longer refer to sea level from the ocean. Therefore, as you descend more and more the value of meter increases relative to the *surface* of the ocean.

Ghost Leviathan is still in experimental, not quite finished yet. And they're still debating on where to put it because they said the size they want it at makes its original home, the Lost River, a little too tight (which is bullshit because the Bones Field, Ghost Forest, and Junction are more than large enough to hold it).

>>382500880
potentially also the lost river, but I think they may have scrapped that idea because it's too big for the area

>>382500880

I really fucking hope he's not a Void area-only creature, because that would be an incredible waste of time, especially since they worked so hard to get it ready for launch because they really liked it. And there's also going to be Crabsquids and Reapers and Sea Dragons in the Void too, so there's no reason for the Ghost Leviathan to be Void only.

The problem is that the Ghost only looks good when in the Lost River since it was made specifically for that area. Anywhere else and it looks weird and out of place, not to mention there's already dangeroud beasts in those areas like Bonesharks and Ampeels and Crabsquids and shit.

The copper cockblock is real.

Honestly you can't really get tons of copper without either a scanner room, which requires 2-3 computer chips to use effectively or the prawnsuit with drill arm.

Once you get the drill arm you can just harvest the copper nodes around the map for an infinite supply.

How long until it's out of early access?

also something that's kind of obvious but you might not notice, sandstone (mostly) only spawns on vertical walls and ceilings

>>382501718

>>382501701
Turn if off for a minute or so then turn it back on and it won't scan for stuff you already collected.

Honestly though the prawnsuit is where its at.

You end up using quite a bit of copper and being able to mine it is fucking awesome.

Also helpful for things like quartz, gold, etc.

Does it still run like shit?

Craft a habitat builder tool and start placing shit, it's basically like building hamster tubes.

You get a 100% refund for deconstructing base segments, so feel free to play around with your design.
Just pay attention to the hull strength when adding new sections, if it drops below 0 the base will start flooding. Foundations, reinforcement panels, and bulkheads add hull strength, while everything else decreases hull strength.

If you want to start a base with longer legs you can build a section, then connect another section above it and deconstruct the first section.

Without bothering to do any real testing, I think they do essentially the same damage as baby crashfish while also being a quarter of the size. Floaters are the real god weapon but there's no way to farm them that I know of, you just have to collect as many as you can. Just a couple of hits will completely fuck up a leviathan, most smaller fish will get paralyzed by one or two
>>382503224
The tops of the pillars in the red grass biomes are pretty cool base spots, especially if you build vertically. The underwater islands are also a neat location if you don't mind getting occasionally harassed by bonesharks.

>>382503465
They gave the Cyclops a significant overhaul a while back, but they've mostly been focused on finishing the story areas and completing placeholder assets.

So, got my first little base set up, wet to the island and scanned all the shit. Have the trees and Chinaman potatoes growing, need to go back and get melons.

Just did a bit of testing, both baby crashfish and deep shrooms either one or two shot river prowlers, and I couldn't get any warpers to stick around long enough to actually test how many hits it takes to kill them, they ran for it after one hit from either. Since you need to farm crashfish and they reproduce super slowly, and deep shrooms are all over the place and easy to farm if you're in a biome without them, deep shrooms are the best way to kill shit in subnautica, even though they're really sort of unsatisfying
protip: do not use weaponized deep shrooms to kill shit close to your base or any of your vehicles unless you like rebuilding things

I think part of the reason for they haven't made the map wider is floating point errors as you travel further away from the map origin. (0,0,0 xyz coords) By having the player go through caves and such you get the experience of traveling long distances without actually being that far from the origin.

Not him but could you tell me what? I stopped playing a while ago since I'm terrified of the sea but still like to keep up occasionally since the creatures are terrifying but intriguing.

I don't have enough patience for this game. I've had it over a year now. It's certainly a good game in the making, but I wish it didn't shit the bed when moving to new areas and didn't crash so much. Hopefully it will be better on full release, but I wish he used something besides Unity because the game is pretty much doomed to always run bad with that.

Well, there's Crabsquids, who look like oversized zooplankton who can dook your electronics with EMP...
There's the Sea Dragon, a bit goofy but he can fuck your shit up badly...
And then there's the Emperor, who looks big and tough, but she's actually really nice

Why are there subnautica threads suddenly? Did they release some shitty update again?

Size comparison of the four leviathans. A couple of things to note:

1. That's the Juvenile Sea Emperor that will spawn in five different places around the world after you hatch the babies and they go through the portal
2. The Sea Dragon's size is smaller than it should be due to an accidental rollback to its old size during an update, it's supposed to be about a tentacular club or so longer than the Ghost Leviathan

remember when the Reaper Leviathan was once the largest and scariest beast in the game? Now it's merely the fifth-largest creature

>>382501314
I dunno, I think it would make a lot more sense for it to be out in the void. I don't like the idea of putting reapers and sea dragons in the void because canonically sea dragons are predators of reapers (the skeleton in the lava biome)

I'd kinda prefer if reapers weren't in the void simply because i think they thrive better in the mountains and near wrecks and stuff. Though it would still be really cool if they were in the void because of their ability to grab you and drag you deeper into the abyss.

I also prefer if sea dragons stayed in the lava zones because it's their natural temperature. The void would be too cold for them.

But i do agree there should be ghosts in other places such as the blood kelp and one in the ghost forest acting as a sentinel for the lava biomes.

The only reason they're in the Void is to act as a way to keep you from wandering off the map, as far as the game's story goes they're not canon. Which means if the GL is only in the Void then it doesn't exist as far as the game is concerned.

>>382508215
You cannot move your escape pod. if you want to go somewhere else, build a base. You will have to build a base anyways.

Both lead and copper are found in limestone outcrops. Always look for them on the sides of rock walls, there's also a large coral tunnel in the shallows which has a bunch of them.

Good luck.

>>382508613
The base stuff is built using the habitat builder, which requires a computer chip and a battery.

In order to make the computer chip, you have to have a survival knife, and you need to get gold from sandstone outcrops, which are slightly smoother, more yellow, and found in the kelp forests with all the shark things around.

Most things in the base are made out of titanium and glass (which is made from quartz) so be sure to stock up.

>>382508782

Now that they devs have said all of the major terrain and story stuff is pretty much done aside from the Rocket-building and liftoff and the next several months is going to be dedicated to bug fixes, optimizing, and other things, I really hope they'll pull this guy out of limbo and finish him and use the fandom's suggestions of punching apart modified large resource nodes and the movable rocks for his former terrain-modifying gimmick as well as taking swings at you if you get too close to him, and being a hazard to your base if you make it too large/noisy.

Lost river or build on one of the deeper floating islands. You could also try to build in the mountain island caves if you want to try something different. Don't try to build in any area with Crabsquids unless you enjoy your lights never working.

With a ultra high capacity tank and a Seaglide you can cover serious distance. Grand Reef is pretty damn safe too, only threat there are Warpers that only attack once you've gotten to a certain section of the story. Until you go into the Deep Grand Reef.

I like the area because it's cozy and I like Crabsnakes but I don't think it has much beyond some unique flora and fauna for your tanks/growbeds. It doesn't really offer anything resourcewise that you can't find anywhere else with greater ease.

There's now a fadein animation that at least makes pop-in less jarring, and there have been a few minor improvements to overall performance, but removing terraforming mostly just improved save stability.

What if the Crabsnakes smell your new jellyshrooms from afar and begin to migrate.

>>382519514
The only deep cave system that's complex enough to need markers is probably the deep grand reef, the other big cave systems have distinctive landmarks to help you navigate. Plus, it's a lot easier in a vehicle since you have effectively infinite oxygen

>>382496379
most other early access survival games focus too much on PvP shit, it becomes less about surviving the environment and more about trying to fuck over every other player as much as possible
Like even the better survival crafting games like Ark falls prey to it, once you get started and get a small base that game becomes a breeze because it was ballanced around the expectation that people would PVP all the time

>farewell, friend
don't do this to me bitch, I get sentimental really easy, leviathans are your enemies not your friends

>>382520112
I can confirm that they work great for bullying reefbacks and fucking with smaller fish, but I've never tried to take down anything that's big and dangerous with them. They should work in theory, but a lot of the leviathans have fucky hitboxes so it's anyone's guess how consistent it would be.

Don't be sad. You can still be a cool uncle for her kids.

I got the message to go check out pod 6

Do I need to make a second set of rad gear to give to them? Just want to save myself a second trip

>>382520296
They have rad gear on their lifeboat.

>>382520330
Thanks, guess I misunderstood the message

>>382520247
The only place leviathans are affected by anything is the head and chest, the rest of their bodies don't have hitboxes.

>>382501263
There's a thermal vent at the corner of the eastern plateaus, northern kelp forest, and shallows. Mine the attached cave system for shittons of minerals.

>>382498789
the biggest 2 (1 of which being in >>382494771 )
animals in the game arent hostile.

of course, the third biggest is the friendly looking fella in the other two pics youve quoted, and he can just straight up kill you instantly.

>>382492424
wouldnt that sink in water?

Just picked up the game because of this thread. IS there anyway to defend myself from wildlife? The little exploding fucks keep killing me.

>>382520586
Aurora's stuck on a plateau.

>>382520586
good thing it isnt just floating in water
>>382520604
>IS there any way to defend myself from wildlife?
yes, but for those exploding fucks, running away with a seaglide is your best option

>>382520604
You can get tools later on to help - a gravity gun and a stasis rifle - but a big part of the game is the lack of weapons. The trick to dealing with the explosive fish is to swim past them, rather than away from them, you'll buy yourself a second to gain distance while they turn around, just make sure they're not about to explode while you do that

>>382520604
you move faster when youre not backing away. with fins you can usually outrun a crash fish as long as you dont start right next to the plant or something. just turn around and swim nigga.

>>382520604
>The little exploding fucks keep killing me
dont enter caves at sonic speed, and use the med-kit that regenerates at the lifepod

It's retarded blue-pilled pansy logic yes, but everything else about the game looks beautiful and as an oceanfag/ayyfag I was sold on the idea.

I've managed to stomach much worse examples of propaganda for the good parts before.

would just like to add that crashfish exist for a reason and if you keep dying to them then theyre doing their job. subnautica has a shitload of things in it that will kill you very easily if you just stumble into them like a maroon. learn from hte crashfish.

>>382520971
a big part of why subnautica is spooky to me is based on how utterly alone you are and other players would reduce the impact this has both in terms of gameplay and atmosphere. doing things with friends is always less scary and having other people right there with you who can provide info/resources instead of you having to actually go explore for them would kinda remove the point of playing for me.

I really hope they keep adding biomes to the game after release.

East of the Crash Zone is an excellent place for a Great Barrier Reef-style biome that's kinda narrow but goes from the bottom of the map up to the Bulb Zone along the entirety of the Crash Zone's border.

North border of the map would be good for the Arctic biome, with icebergs and broken ice sheets and underwater tunnels and channels of ice over a barren seabed patrolled by weird creatures.

The Dunes's western edge can be the location for a Marianas Trench biome that plunges down to 1400-1600 meters and has eerie deep-sea fish and creatures.

And next to/above the Sea Treader's Path can be the Lilypad Islands biome that's in the works. There's also the Twisty Bridges biome that they're relocating to be a connector between the Lost River and somewhere else.

>>382521219
The only way to do co-op horror (or "atmosphere") is to fuck with your ability to communicate, which is basically impossible since people will just hop on discord or teamspeak or steam chat or whatever and completely bypass any restrictions you put in place. You can also split up players so that even if they can communicate it's worthless, but I don't think that would be workable in this style of game

is this a good game in the true spirit of the deep sea threads of old?

It comes close in a lot of ways, I think a lot closer than any other game has managed to pull off. Diluvion sucked, Sunless Sea was great but the 2D graphics could only go so far, but Subnautica really nails the atmosphere and world building even though it's pretty rough around the edges. The only thing it's missing is true abyssal exploration, there's sonar in the game but it's almost useless since none of the biomes are really dark enough to justify it outside of a few tucked away corners that you're not really supposed to bother exploring.

how do i learn to make some frick frackin aerogel??

also is it weird that i have a cyclops but havent found the little hand speed jet? i see 100000000 scanner room fragments but never anything else

>>382519993
Tell me about it. I picked up Conan hoping it would be like a moddable the forest and that was a disappointment. It's balanced around online play and even to build 1 block of something requires enormous resources.

piece of shit is agressive even in creative, my cyclops is on fire, been headbutting each other the last 30 min and he doesn't fuck off
and I'm even more afraid than before because I see how he clips trough the ground/cliff walls, so now instead of no seeing him and feel safe I think that he's always there inside a wall, ready to make me clip out of the world, got used to his presence, now the lack of it is what makes me anxious

What a shocker, some people are passionate about causes they have no real context for.

As a gunfag, why do other gunfags get so triggered by anything vaguely anti-gun?

>>382522385
Because they have the same reaction as SJW trash. They see something that opposes what they support and immediately make it the worst thing ever.

Also fellow gunfag here. I think some of it has to do with the numbers of idiot hicks that are among us.

>>382506164

I think it has to do with that bug that spawns multiple instances of objects on top of each other such as ship wrecks.

It was frustrating because you had to cut through multiple overlapped doors just to get inside some wrecks.

>>382496094
>>382494010
DON'T YOU BELIEVE IN MERMAIDS

>>382522862
That still happens sometimes. Other funny things were wrecks not spawning but all the upgrades would spawn so you could get them without fear of drowning.

>>382522862
I think they fixed that bug, or at least I haven't run into it in ages.

I aint gonna ask again

A while back, I always picked up a Floater as a dumb "good luck charm" sort of thing when I played. I don't even remember why, but I did. That stopped real fucking fast when one of the updates made Floaters send your lifepod 7k+ meters deep just by being in your inventory.

Did they fix this? I haven't played since last year.

you're in for a really spooky time, especially if you want to go deep and you're going to have to go deep
there's a difficulty setting, but it's just normal, normal with no food or water, permadeath, and babbymode minecraft-lite
You can totally trivialize the survival aspects of the game within like 20 minutes of starting a save if you know what you're doing, it's not difficult in the slightest to set up a self-sustaining seabase, but it's pretty boring

I have no problem with nogunz, but the reasoning for it was retarded. It'd be OK if that developer said "hey, guns are boring, we did a lot of them in NS2, take this notgun weapon instead". It's not like you can't massacre everything you see - you have knives, a claw arm, Taliban fart gas torpedoes, you can propel fish into rock and rocks into fish, you can torturously kill live fish with your fabricator, and so on.

Also, crashfish chaincannon WHEN? I need to clear out my tank.
