Rate my seamoth and post yours.
how well does this game run?
>>342907171
I don't even know what I'm looking at or what you're talking about.
HOW THE FUCK DO I GET STALKER TEETH
>>342907431
Pick up some of that debris you can turn into titanite(or whatever that common metal is)
Drop it near Stalkers
Wait until they pick it up and drop it alongside one of their teeth.
>>342907431
Give the stalkers metal and maybe a fish so it doesn't attack you
It'll thrash the metal around and it MAY drop a tooth
Anyone experiencing stuttering and spikes of memory usage? Also the water looks like shit and I can't see any difference between the graphics option.fuck

>Running a sea moth moon pool.
Hope you like POWER LOST remixes.
Still, nice moth. Post mods.
>>342907253
Not very, actually.
>>342907829
Huh I havn't run out of power and I even have a water filtration unit. I have a shit ton of solar panels though and one bio thingie.
>>342907253
i got a 5 year old laptop and it runs pretty good
>>342907431
Check in the caves or nooks around the kelp forest. For some reason stalker teeth drift into there.
On that topic, can you get teeth from stalkers in your aqurium?
Alright I don't fucking get it.
I scan a bridge, hull, or engine fragment and I get titanium. I am trying to unlock the cyclops. Is my shit fucked or do I have to find a unique portion of one of the three portions, if that makes sense.
Also here's my work in progress base.
>>342907664
No one?
Can you make a base spanning most of the map?
Do you bother with the escape pod once you get a base up and running?
>>342907171
Is this worth getting then?
Looks good and it's got a very nice discount but I'm really put off by the fact it's early access, same goes for Long Dark.
Yooo

The part that really gets me is not having the ability to split output of thermal plants to power satilite bases.
>>342908642
>Base has 5 panels, two bio reactors, three thermal plants conducted over about miles.
If you're less than 100m deep you can just put down 50 solar panels and never have to worry about power
>>342907253
From my experience, it has a lot of skipping. It settles down, but lots of movement in or out of different 'zones' messes it up a bit.
It also feels slightly off to me. Like my character's movements (especially on land) seem at a lower framerate than they actually are.
If you can get over these problems, I'd recommend it. You gotta be into the whole crafting and exploration shit though.
just bought the game, what mode should I play?
>>342907664
>>342908275
I haven't but my rig is well over recommended. I do have draw distance problems with terrain popping.
>>342908275
>>342907664
Yeah, after playing for about 30 mins the frame rate just tanks and the audio gets super buggy for me.
>>342908642
I have a power tower. It's about 6 rooms stacked, each one with a bio-reactor filled with reginalds.
I never run out of power and it's been years.
>>342908720
Okay, I'll put some panels up on a tall reef and run a conductor.
I actually made the base going down a cliff.
>>342908149
cyclops hull, engine, and bridge blueprints are each their separate thing with 3 blueprint fragments each. You need all of them to make a cyclops. there's also a cyclops power efficiency mod in the aurora, get that.
>>342908937
Do different fish have different outputs? Because reactors seem to just eat through kelp.
>>342908535
just play for 2 hours and refund it if you don't like it
>>342909241
fish in general are far superior to plants, especially kelp
>>342909241
Kelp only gives like 5 power.
Regis give like 200 and you can shove 16(?) I think into 1 reactor, and reactors don't burn them until they need to.
Build some fish tanks and fill them with regis.
You'll never worry about food or power ever again.
>>342907253
I'm rocking 4~ year old equipment and it runs pretty good on minimum. I'm assuming full release will have actual graphics options and optimization.
What's the point of that customization if you're the only person to see it?
Is this multiplayer yet? Would it even be good as a multiplayer game?
>>342909559
no and no
>>342907253
Stutters.
>>342908816
The one without food and water needs. Foraging for food and water the first few days its just annoying and then after that you have an unlimited supply anyway.
>>342909559
>What's the point of that customization if you're the only person to see it?

>>342909559
>>342909681
Game would be cool multiplayer.
>>342909717
It's not so bad when you find out you can eat fish raw.
Have they made fragments easier to find recently?
I tried playing a few months ago, and I stopped when I figured out that after 10 hours of playing, I was nowhere near getting anything bigger than a Seamoth.
I never found all the pieces for solar towers, either, so I was stuck farming kelp and deep sea fungus for power. It was a pain in the ass.

It's funny to think that we actually have a more realistic chance of settling outside the Earth than in the bottom of the ocean.
Pressure is a bitch.
How well will this run on a GTX660?
>>342911761
I have a GTX 660ti, it plays reasonably well, but has more problems with harddrive/memory speed than graphics. They're re-doing terrain load soon, so it'll run better.
>>342910484
They added that anon in one of the patches. On a different note how does the scanner room work? What effect do the upgrades actually have and what is the hud thing for because I popped them all in but didn't notice a difference. Are they for the camera drone itself?

How much RAM and whats your CPU?
>>342912632
I've got 16gb of RAM and an i5 @4.2ghz.
>>342912040
the hud thing is for your inventory, same slot as a thermometer or compass. upgrades are fairly self-explanatory, makes it scan faster/further. the hud upgrade will put a circle around whatever you told it to scan for, all quartz within several hundred meters for example.
>>342912040
Okay, nevermind I read up on them. Scanner rooms suck ass and are completely worthless unless you spam them across the map because the range is pathetic.
>>342912620
>playing a game that makes you cum over and over.
Why are you talking like that's a bad thing?
>>342912082
The problem I have with the lava zone, specifically the active lava zone, is that there isn't a huge open area where the floor is completely lava.
I want to see a huge lake of lava at the bottom of the ocean
I remember there being a webm somewhere of a tiny sub in pitch blackness using sonar pings to look around, and through the pings you could see what looked like a giant crab using a large sub as a shell.
Is that this game?
>>342912884
No. That's Diluvion and it's not out as far as I known
>>342912884
No.
>>342911426
It's closer than you think actually.
There's some obscure group of researchers working on production of deep-sea doming systems for actually settling the ocean floor in the event of the polar ice caps melting and massively reducing above-ground landmass.
It's... not been going great, but it's making progress.
>>342912731Yup, I need more RAM and learn how to overclock
>Farming creepvine near my base
>I have created the sun
This shit is unreasonably bright.
>>342912772
>>342912756
There was an issue in the last stable build that completely muted all creature sounds if you built the scanner room. Don't build one unless they patched this, it really ruins the atmosphere and predators can sneak up on you
>>342910834A few players have found incomplete things around the map suggesting stuff like that. Dark mazes and labyrinths, tombs strange markingsa etc. The game is going to have some kind of story arc, and it should be good fun. They probably wont release it until the game is almost done- but Im sure its being developed.

Carefully

>Dynamic lighting, incredibly dark ocean where you can't see anything

Shit was fucking sweet senpai. Take me back.
Seriously it's too fucking bright. Like holy shit.
>>342913268
There are materials that can resist that kind of pressure, they are just incredibly difficult to produce and rare.
I mean we have subs that go down to the deepest points, so I don't see why not permanent structures eventually.
>>342913268
Honey
>>342913069
Sounds interesting.
We need to go deeper.I mean that literally. 3000m is still too shallow.
>>342913268
Patience, hope, and a sprinkling of glass subjected to repeated testing, retesting, and torture until it is dubbed "good enough" and then put into a test product to see how it handles and then hoping it doesn't explode half-way to the sea-floor.
A good method is to sample the sediments in deep environments and see how their molecular structures compare to similar above-ground materials.
>>342913374
>I mean we have subs that go down to the deepest points
hue no we don't, we send unmanned shit down there not subs
>>342913343
I've had some pretty vivid dreams, one recently where I drowned twice. As I sunk below the surface of the water, I didn't see anything. I felt water rushing around me as I sunk, the river floor disappeared when I touched it and then the pressure build around me as I gave up.
It happened twice.
>>342909186
How the fuck do you even enter the aurora?
I went through the front and it was just a bunch of invisible walls and miscellaneous debris where you never really could tell where you could and couldn't move to.
>>342913557
There's an opening on the exploded side above-water. Have fun.
>>342913557
There's a path along the beams on the frontside as well as a small hole on the west side that leads right to the reactor core
>>342913557
There's a ramp at the front that takes you up and around inside and there's a side entrance. Both only available after the Aurora has hit critical and ruptured.
>>342913052
Shit son, every hostile creature on the planet knows exactly where you are.
These guys are the key to infinite power. Catch a few, toss 'em into a tank and let 'em multiply.
Grab a few to eat and a few for your bio-reactors and enjoy self-sufficiency.
>>342911426
its unironically easier to build a habitat in space than it is under the sea.
funny enough living on Venus might be easier that living on Mars, since the gravity is similar to Earth and the atmosphere protects against radiation
a floating habitat could exist in the upper atmosphere and have conditions similar to Earth.

I don't have this game. It looks to me like you can build your own underwater base. Is that true? If yes, can sea monsters attack your base?
>>342913486
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deepsea_Challenger
You're retarded lad
>>342913912
Extra large rooms when?
>>342914065
yes and some of them
>>342913976
Peepers only give 150 energy to a bioreactor. Regis give 220.
>>342913781
Any fish does well, but Bunnyrays do better. Even the other large fish last longer still.
Hatch two similar eggs in an Aquarium and let them breed out.
>>342913912
Don't forget that Multiplayer generally requires a rewrite of the game from the ground up assuming they didn't originally plan for it. Networking is a fucking NIGHTMARE.
>>342913839
>>342914103
Neat
I considered a refund due to the performance issues but I hear that they are working on an update to fix it since they got rid of terraforming.
I'll hold onto it, i love how much it triggers my fear of deep sea.
>>342914141
Regis are more plentiful and easier to acquire than hunting for eggs, and really focusing on anything bigger isn't necessary since 16 Regis give 3520 power and you'll never-ever use that much energy unless you have 4 water-filter machines for every 1 bioreactor.

If I start base building and my shit doesn't really fit where I picked, can I deconstruct everything and move it somewhere else or am I stuck with where I pick?
>>342913268
I personally think the secret lies in biology. Sperm whales have a fluid in them that doesn't change under pressure, and they're capable of diving deeper than any man made device. And there's plenty of living things down deep that survive perfectly well under pressure that destroys the greatest man made materials ever created.I'm saying we need to tame whales.
Also Marblemelons make food AND water trivial.
>>342914201
I hope they never implement multiplayer.
They're going to get the game near perfect then fuck it all up.
>>342914512
do they attack you
>>342914409
A trip through a mushroom forest yields an easy glowray egg or two, anywhere has Bunnyray eggs, Kelp has Stalker Eggs a plenty. You can find Sandshark eggs easy too.

>and they're capable of diving deeper than any man made device
We've reached rock bottom though. The problem is actually staying down there, let alone building any living environments.
Those deep sea creatures usually don't try to fight back against the pressure, they're very jelly-like. But we can't do that to ourselves.
>>342909241

Guys, I need help. I've gotten to the point in the game where I want to build a base, but I'm just completely flummoxed about where to put one.
The safe shallows are with all the coral and stuff looks really comfy, but ideally, I'd like to set myself up for later in the game. I also struggle with making an interesting base lay out.
Show me some pics of your base and tell me where you put it.
>>342915232

>>342915232
I made mine right at the edge of the Lost River Biodome, where there's currently nothing. I accidentally deleted this huge Bloodstalk, would have looked amazing overlooking my base 1km+ deep.

WebM guy here, this is the layout of my base.
Theres an entrance hall, 2 storage rooms, Observation room/office, 2 Generator rooms, an indoor garden, gallery, 2 large aquarium rooms, the moonpool and the outdoor garden.
Location is up to you but I usually go for the best views so usually on a cliff or ridge.

terribly. you can get a high framerate, but expect it to dip to sub 50 constantly
absolutely do not play this game in VR in its current state, you will hurl
>>342917165
Alright gonna add on to this for anyone as stupid as me. Apparently, if you build a big tube from your base up onto the surface of the water, even if you have mass reinforcement below, it can breach and flood without collecting any water inside your base below. So, the light will be off until you fix them.

Next patch they're removing terraforming, so that the game will run incredibly smoothly. As it is, the game has to run individual checks on every piece of diggable sand. After that's removed, there's roughly 2k less objects that need to be loaded in in any given biome, up to 41k in the Dunes biome.
Then all they need to do is remove pop-in and add the ability to see out farther, and the game will run perfectly.

i'm pretty sure this game would stress me out too much, but its the only survival sandbox game thats looks even remotely interesting, compared to all those DayZ clones.
don't even need sea monsters, just being underwater and possibly running out of O2, the darkness, the pressure weighing your limbs down, the 4 dimensions of vulnerability, fuck.
>>342917626
Only if I want to explore more biomes or make WebMs. The current endgame of Subnautica is to make at least one of each item in the game as far as I'm concerned and thats what my base has.
>>342917718
I torn on whether I will be happy with terraforming gone or not. Having the game run much better will be great BUT I love that at the moment you can build your base next to a wall and it will remove the terrain to fit the module.
If we can't build our bases because on a tiny rock I'm going to be fucking annoyed

Water pressure should be harder to deal with than what it is currently.
>>342918114
Your base can already destroy placed objects. Removing the ability to terraform won't change base building, unless you wanted to build your base in a bowl of sand.

Where? I was also sure there was a double bed but I am dealing with singles right now.
>>342918392
I agree. The fact that the player character barely has to deal with pressure besides oxygen really breaks my immersion.
I've been on the fence about buying this game for a while now.

>>342918491
As long as we can still do pic related, I'll be happy but how can they remove Terraforming while keeping pic related? Aren't they the same thing?
>>342918772
I won't tell you where exactly... but go to the Island to the south and look towards the mountains...
What engine does this use?
>>342919090
So because I call for better pressure mechanics, in a game about deep sea exploration, where pressure is a crucial issue people face IRL, and a mechanic that is already in the game, you're telling me I'm saying the game needs to be ultra-realistic?
Pressure needs to be a bigger problem for the player than the vehicles, but right now this is reversed.
>>342919110
Ah, that's good to hear.
>>342910310
...so did you fuck?
>>342918976
I'll have to breed up those rays to release in deep ocean biomes.

I'd say for a game about deep-sea diving a little in the way biological consequences for pressure would be fine.

To anyone who can't into bases well at all:
Autism ahead, warning
Room with nothing but storage
Room with fabricator, a small bit of storage with high-use items such as a bit of glass/qz/titanium etc
Reinforce your walls around the generator, makes it so you can use glass a lot more because you probably aren't going to visit it a lot anyways
If you know where the marblemelons and shit spawn go grab it and haul the seeds back to your base, make sure to grab the pots as well
voila, never have to eat or drink anything again
Things I would change:
Reinforce the Nitrogen Cheat
Make food/water tougher to get your hands on
massively nerf the growtime of hangingfruit and melons/potatoes
More material areas, I can't count the number of fucking times I've had to endlessly search the ends of the planet for some silver
that's it really

I'm 25, and I moved out at 16. Junior year of highschool.
Then I worked at a grocery store from bagger to CSM and (with my then gf/now wife's help) put myself through college.
Now I just graduated, had to do my internship out of state so I quit my job, and I'm going to live with parents until I find a new one with my degree.
>>342919218
That's genios!

Someone mentioned it was Unity, but I'm not sure.
I'm pretty intrigued, but
>Early Access
I'm a little leery of this, is it worth picking up now or should I wait to see what state it'll be in during the winter sale?
>>342919789
it's ok for the price, it's worth $20 after experiencing everything it has to offer.
>>342919719
Good luck anon!
>>342919789
They said the base game should be finished by August.
is this a rare case or early access good guys?
the dev roadmap seems pretty open, like they aren't hiding the fact they took the money and ran instead, like most devs.
https://trello.com/b/yxoJrFgP/subnautica-development
>>342919743
I remember when these devs were in their planning phase. They're /v/ regulars or, rather, they were.
>>342919743
It's Unity.
>>342919665
its retarded how common gold is and how little its used
replace 1/2 of its spawn areas with silver instead and material gathering wouldn't be so BS
>>342917782
>music casually playing while exploran
>hear static come through the radio
>"Hello?"
>>342919965
That's because they didn't run. If you buy the game right now, you get more than $20 dollar's worth.
And they are constantly updating and have actual dates. They are a sadly rare case of legitimate use of early access.
>>342919969
Just like Notch!
>>342920103
>devs implement both legit survivor outposts and alien body snatchers trying to trick you

Are crabsnake eggs found inside of the mushrooms or are they just laying about the jelly cave?
This game gives me such massive levels of anxiety. Fuck the ocean, but this game is super fun and I can't stop playing. Every time I'm swimming around int he seamoth and I see a big ravine or just a drop, I start sweating and get so fucking nervous. I don't think a game has ever done this to me. Along with the feeling of wonder when you find a new biome and just marvel at it. Game is awesome, can't wait till they implement everything.

>>342920103
>There is an intelligent and advanced alien species that the devs are making on
>>342920443
Boy you're telling me. When the light begins to get dimmer I get really jittery in the seamoth. I keep bumping into the environment and the horrible CLANG always makes me jump. Not to mention having to come out of my sub to use the welder.
>>342919965
I find the Subnautica guys, Amplitude and Klei are pretty good for early access.
>>342920443
>get to island

Never again. I will never go straight down again.
FUCK that shit, I now only accompany the edges of ridges. Seriously, I have to put some music on the background to stop myself from having to pause constantly.I love this game.
>>342911639
You never know what you might find.
>>342920443AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

>mfw the first stalker I ran into startled the shit out of me
fucker came out of nowhere and bit my dick
I ask again. Is this game worth it, or is it just Minecraft level disappointment again?
>>342921005
If you're that worried, just pirate the thing and see for yourself.
>>342921005
You want a link to my livestream so you can make up your own mind?
>>342921005
Depends on what you're looking for. If you want a effective deep sea terror game with some decent base building mechanics it's worth the 8-10 hours of content there is right now. More to come too.
>>342920776
Never played the game, but tell me what happened.
>>342921127
I prefer there to be some objective to work towards.
From what I've seen of the game, I'm 50/50. Looks a bit neat, but seems like it'll just end up amazingly shallow. And the creature design is a mixed bag between alien and weird and shit that looks like it was ripped out of a Unity asset pack that don't look like they belong at all.
>>342920776
Wait, you talking about Floater Island? What should I be looking for below it?
I bought this game yesterday, but haven't had a chance to play because I'm too busy posting on /v/, but is there any tangible reason to explore? Like do you find useful things in caves and trenches?

That's the story of how I met my first reaper. Post yours
>>342907171
I know they said no guns, but is there a way to kill the mean fishies? Or if something attacks your base are you just fucked?
Is this just gonna be another early access game like The Forest? Or is it actually pretty good?
>>342921340
I've heard talk in these threads of a story involving intelligent life forms on the planet and how they gained control of a Sea Emperor, and that it'd be something you'd be working towards accomplishing to do yourself in the end game.
>>342921476
I thought people liked the Forest.
>>342917718
Ok now I'm thinking about keeping the game instead of getting refund.
>>342921465
stab them to death like a real man
or I guess propulsion cannon etc.
>>342921485
>and how they gained control of a Sea Emperor
That's not something to work toward, though. That's pointless. That's ARK shit. ARK is a terrible game.
>>342921437I haven't met one yetThe little sandsharks have been spooking me enough, thanks
>>342910310
Put your penis in her
>>342921465
Isn't part of the games charm that you are not or will eventually not become the highest in the food chain?
>It is normal to be repulsed by the thought of eating a dead animal.
>tfw stabbing a reaper to death
>>342921654
It could be going either way at this point, controlling a Sea Emperor could just be a neat gameplay mechanic or it could start some kind of ending. There's shit in the game about the ships being shot down by something on the planet, which sounds pretty final boss-y to me at least.
>>342921903
is that even possible?
>Finding out that Reapers can't see you if you don't move
Holy shit the game is so easy now
>>342921824
The human condition is one where we are driven to become the top of the food chain. We are literally hard-wired to kill anything that challenges us. Or fuck it to death.
>>342921980
Hello, Reaper.
>>342921851
As in people havent eaten animals in ages (presumably) since you can just synthetize food in the future.
TECHNOLOGY!
>>342921824
That's fucking stupid

I read something about the story being you goign to find out what the shit blew you down from space and deactivating/destroying it and getting the fuck off that wet rockand probably nuke it form orbit OR mine it till it doesnt exist
How are you guys sure this won't be a disappointing Early Access game
>>342922224
This whole thing sounds "That Kid" as fuck.
