they "plan" for an august release, but you know how it is with Early Access.
Devs update frequently -- pretty much big updates monthly, while the experimental branch gets daily, small updates

early access underwater exploration game set on an alien planet. Very fun. Sadly no multiplayer yet.
>>343270017
no multiplayer as of yet, but devs are definitely interested in doing co-op, if they get to it.
It's a very comfy deep sea exploration game.

>>343272386
Dig up some lead from sandstone and make a radiation suit. Then prioritize getting all of the tools, building a small base then getting a Seamoth.
>>343272265
After about 4 or 6 hours it gets easier to explore. That's how long it usually takes to set your self up and build a ship( seamoth). I suppose though, the deeper you go the harder it is.

Craft a survival knife, flashlight, and scanner. Horde copper, quartz and titanium (Build chests if you have to). Look for lead (Found inside of sandstone) so that you can make a radiation suit. To get water find Salt (Looks like a bunch of white blocks on the ground) and coral (Take your survival knife and slice the coral found on the giant tube shapes). Then craft bleach and turn it into water. Use salt to preserve food and don't feel afraid to use the nutrient blocks and water already found in your pod. Make sure to scan the safe-shaped blocks for new crafting info. Don't go near the ship wreck.

>>343274242
yeah but my main reason for thinking that is that there is a single reaper guarding the floater island and the logs say that at the end of the previous survivors there was a single survivor left on the island because the others were trapped under the ocean somewhere.
plus different people could turn into different things depending on circumstances and other shit.
>>343274509
Most likely the Precursors, which are most likely the ones that shot down the Degassi.
Alternatively, the other planet has aliums that shot down the Aurora and Degassi.

>>343274839
The reaper closest to the floater island is behind the Aurora.
There are several around the Mountains biome. No idea why. I found a wreckage there and got the 2 plant pots you can't find anywhere else, but shit, I was terrified, and I had my cyclops.
>>343274839
Thats only more evidence for Reapears intentionally hunting out humans. The PC should be a fish by now.
So why the fuck did they make it an ocean on a foreign planet instead of just a normal fucking planet with freaky shit?

>>343275595
...What? The fact it's all underwater is central to the fuckin' game, what are you talking about.
game looks comfy
Does it offer challenge or is it a dumb grind for food?
>>343275118
>The PC should be a fish by now
its not a fast working mutation even the previous survivors didn't know how long before it would actually start affecting them
>>343275689
it can be a panic inducing grind for food, and that last moonpool module
>>343275689
Progression is challenging (Reaper Leviathans and the Aurora) and food isn't a problem once you have a small farm or a stillsuit.
>>343275689
Food's pretty easy to come by, same with water, but it does mean you need to plan and stock stuff. Once you get an alien containment full of peepers/airbags or a lantern tree you're basically set.
Loot the Aurora or go to the floater island first?
I have a Seamoth but no Cyclops.
>>343275689
If you're exploring then it's not comfy but it's exhilarating, but when you're building it's comfy as fuck, and the more you've explored the comfier your base will be
![4d8c4acb3b[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/BTUToJs.jpg "4d8c4acb3b[1].jpg")
Let me summarize the story for you.
You crash land on the planet 4546B, the second of a system of binary stars. For about 30 years, the planet has had a string of ships go missing near it. The Degassi is the 2nd to last to go missing, and the Aurora is the latest. The Degassi crashlanded 7 years prior to the start of the story.
Characters:
>You
>Paal Torgal (in his 70's, father of Baat)
>Baat Torgal (19 - 26, receiver of neuro-implants that gave him knowledge on bio-engineering)
>Marguerit Maida (in her 40's, hardened mercenary fired several times for going off the deep end)
>CTO Yu (nothing is known about him, other that him and someone else got into a pod together, and they escaped out into the wild, after having their pod roll into a deep cave.
>Keen (Officer of the Aurora, managed to find land with a bunch of crewmates)
>Captain (died onboard the Aurora)
>qt lady girl
Over the span of 30 years, many ships have tried getting to this planet. The only 2 named ships we've seen are the Degassi, which is, presumably, piloted by Paal Torgal. Paal is in his 60's, and got life-extender implants, which he believes would get him to about 250 years old before he dies. Marguerit is their hired hand for defense, since they knew the planet was dangerous before going there. Baat is the son of Paal, who paid lodsa emone for Baat to have information implanted into his brain, allowing them to bio-engineer Lantern Fruit, Marble Melon, and Chinese Potatoes, found on the Floater Island, in only a span of a couple of weeks. The Torgals are the head family of the Torgaljin corporation, inherited by Paal. They crashland near the Floater Island, and Paal wants to play it safe and just wait their for rescue. After a month or so, Marguerit becomes increasingly agitated and hostile. Around this time, Baat discovers that there are bacteria all over this planet that will mutate your DNA. Luckily, everyone is bio-engineered, so they resist this - mostly - and everything else is immune.

>While i wait three days
Care to elaborate?
>>343276017
For the moment yeah, there is going to be a story to follow and give you goals to reach and a ending point. But for the moment that's not done yet so it's more or less survival/comfy sea base simulator.
>>343276090
That's a different mushroom forest, this one's right under the Aurora
>>343276212Once you fix the reactor, it takes three ingame days for the radiation to fade away, at which point the radsuit becomes obsolete, and you might as well wear the stillsuit+rebreather.

Who else uses bulkheads to separate their hatches from the rest of their base?
cause it just makes sense to do it because of the way hatches are designed
>>343276368
You do, and you can. Lethal solutions are harder to pull off than running/stunning, though. Seamoth + PDS is pretty safe, though.

>>343275985
Part 2
Marguerit is concerned that help will never arrive, and constantly harps on about going into the water to get supplies. There is no titanium on Floater Island, but the water is loaded with resources. In fact, the Degassi and Aurora are both mining vessels, though the Aurora also came with the intention of picking up the other survivors. Specifically, the Degassi came for Lithium, which this planet his in abundance, more than most solar systems.
Marguerit goes and wrestles a Stalker to the ground with a thermo-blade, and takes its teeth for enameled glass. Her plan is to either build an underwater base, or build a Cyclops. She captures some and gives it to Baat as a present, and now Baat is on her side. Paal no longer puts up a resistance, and agrees to build an underwater base, but he wants Marguerit to stay away from Baat. I assume, at least, she was also offering sexual favors.
Baat has a huge breeding aquarium, and bio-engineers some fish of his own. I'm assuming it's the Rabbit Rays that came out of this, since they're the only creatures to not have a natural predator or eat any fish. Not to mention their DNA trait is "friendliness".
Eventually, they finish their base in a mushroom cave biome. It gets broken into, Baat escapes to the Floater Island, and Paal and Maida are MIA. Baat writes, one final time, that "they" got Paal and Maida. He's deranged at this time, and MIA himself 7 years later when you arrive.
7 years later, the Aurora also gets shot down and lands on Earth. CTO Yu and someone else manage to escape from a 300m deep cave, buy their whereabouts are unknown. Officer Keen located land, and was instructed to gather as many crew members as possible and go to it.
You are the only person left.

You could've irradiated the place. It could also be one of the shroom cave entrances near a reaper nest. They don't go into caves, rest assured.
Worms will fuck you up, though. Pic related is what happens when you try and give it a pat on the back.

>Baat has a huge breeding aquarium, and bio-engineers some fish of his own
What's your source on this?
The thing that scares me the most in this game is not even the reaper, but the end of the world. When you reach it, the land just goes down and it's just sea emptiness down there, I can't bring myself to go close to where I know the world ends, I need to stay a respectable distance from it or I start to lose my shit.

>>343276368

Only Sea Treaders, the Reaper, Sea Dragon, and Emperor Leviathans, Crab Squids, Spike Trap Plants, Ampeels, and pic related, which is big enough to swallow the biggest creature in the game whole.
>stuck on ocean planet
>can make current generators
>can't make a hydroelectric power generator
The game is great, but I can't build anything. The habitat builder causes the game to crash.
Any idea how to fix that?
>>343276935
When you first use it the game freezes for a while (I've had it last a minute before) but after that it's alright
>>343276865
>All the same, the life down here is INCREDIBLE. Marguerit has been bringing back the wildest specimens you could imagine. OK, the plantlife is inedible. I learnt that the hard way.

>>343277010
Doesn't really hint towards an aquarium, but I'll accept it
>>343276916
The play area of Subnautica is, right now, about the size of a moderately big city. The area you play in just has no currents, I guess.
>>343276881Word is latter on they're going to make it so it spawn in the larger creatures if you try to hit the bottom

I think i'll check this again in like 3 years. I mean, this game just screams for a 2-6 player coop. I mean, i pilot the ship, someone else uses sonar/cameras.
We take our equipment and carry it to ground to do a cave-diving operation
>>343277040
Seaglide then Seamoth
>>343277073
They have a fabricator and habitat builder just like you do. They even use enameled glass to make the observatory, and can make the Cyclops. It's safe to assume that they don't just eat the fish they find down there, and there is a model for a broken aquarium that is going into the abandoned sea base in the mushroom biome where they lived.
>>343277186
They're in the Jellyshroom caves, no edible plants down there.
>>343277103
I know. Oddly enough I've had a reaper try to push me down there once. I was on the cyclops and a reaper just started to push his body against the cyclops, pushing me down there. He gave up before long though.
Also, I know the game has no sea currents, but whenever I go there I can't help but fear being pushed down by strong currents with no way to return.
>>343277103
That's where the Sea Emperor Leviathan is going to spawn, and the Crab Squid (after it gets resized) is going down there, too. Sea Dragon is ??? as far as I know.
>>343277040
Get a scanner, and start scanning those safe looking things. First priority is a Seaglider, so you can go sanic, second is a solar panel, so you can make comfy underwater bases with a habitat module builder thing and not worry about drowning.
>>343277186
He bio-engineered the plants.
Baat:
>Those mountains look like they get the most of the sun. If we built observatories up there I think I could grow enough food to keep us all alive. I think this could work.
Paal:
>You hear that? You think you know better than 10 million credits of biochem training?
Many days later.
Baat:
> I think I could make a good seaweed salad.
>>343277301
Seaglider is unnecessary. I haven't made one yet in my most recent game, and I have nearly 100%'d it. I just need the Aurora model, the Wall Shelves, one PDA log from CTO Yu, and the beds.
I also only have 6 rooms in my base, 2 of which have aquariums in them.
>>343277272
To be fair I think thats a natural fear when it comes to open waters. Not only are they deep and without end. They're powerful enough to make you helpless.
Fuck if they did add currents I don't think i could handle playing this game anymore.
Also i think thats just part of the attack behavior for the Reapers. like if they catch your Moth they start heading deep. Making you take damage from the crush depth as well as their claws.
>>343277396
wait, so did he try to bioengineer some edible plants but failed or were they edible but they tasted like shit, also is paal talking to marguerit?
>>343277586
No, he did it. Crazy future tech made him into a bio-chem genius, and he modified the plants to be edible on the planet. Not all of them, mind you. We know that he modified the Lantern Fruit, Marble Melon, and Chinese Potatoes to be edible, though, and most likely the creepvine.

You know what, I'm ok with this.
Might sound weird but honestly multi-rooms are kind of OP
>>343278163
I think so as well. More recipes is always a good thing, since they could be used to entice players to go to different biomes they normally wouldn't. As long as it isn't found in some ridiculously far off place, I'm fine, since otherwise, I'm heading straight towards the island and making food corridors with growbeds. Fish just aren't valuable enough to build a containment unit for them.

Diving helmet is no longer a base blueprint. You can only hold your breath for 10 seconds before you get it.

What's building and gathering resources like?
I don't mind if it takes a bit of time, but if it's really grindy I won't bother.
>>343278278
Honestly this. Like I've been trying to make use of Bio reactors with their own fish tanks. It just doesn't work, you need something else to help power it, they're just so slow to build up any power.
Plus having to sit there and cook half a dozen fish every 10 minutes just eats time when you can just shove fruit into your face.
>>343278463
Inventory is a little on the big side, but gets eaten up quickly if you're a dumbass who doesn't organize your stuff when you can. I've seen many people on here with like half their inventory eaten up by utilities they don't need, like the Sea Glide or Propulsion Gun.
Gathering resources is easy, but minerals, namely Titanium, Lithium, Quartz, Uranium, Silver, Diamonds, Mercury, Aluminum Oxide, and Magnetite are finite. So if you waste too much, you'll be going out farther and farther to find them.
Wait, hold on. I haven't found the floating islands yet, but can you build bases on them to live like a real human bean?
>>343278542
Tanks and bioreactors are only helpful if you get some of the bigger fishlife in your tanks. Ampeels and Sandsharks are better than 3-rodded nuclear reactors. A Reefback is the single best source of power in the game. It provides more energy than thermal reactors in the Active Lava Zone.

Floater Island*
Floating Islands are the underwater islands. Floater Island is pic related. And yes, you can build on it and live on it all you want, but it's a bad base location because of reasons. Namely that it's at the edge of the map, meaning the end game takes you forever to get to, and that there is a narrow area you're allowed to travel to and fro, since there are reapers around 600m away in like 3 directions.
>>343278463
gathering is like picking things up stuck on the surface, in different areas
building is placing a blueprint and filling it up with resources in your inventory
You gotta unlock quite a lot of buildings by finding boxes and scanning them in different areas
>>343278463
I really can't stand too much grinding but honestly it's not too bad in this game. especially once you get the storage upgrades for the first sub. Plus the over all cost for things is never too much. One or two trips hunting is all you need to get most projects going.
Plus recently they added a building thats whole job is to sit there and scan for a resource you want and once you get the right chip equipped it will display what it finds on your HUD.
>>343278824
You can fix it by deconstructing the Scanner Room

>>343279085
Thermal vent. Midgame you can start powering it with Thermal Reactors, which are about as strong as 6x solar panels, active all day.
Plus, it's located closer to all of the important stuff.

You'll be fine Anon :^)tfw same happened to me and I turned my lights on to see this
>>343279148
Very. Everything in the game is liable to kill you at a moment's notice. Leviathans (Reaper and Sea Dragon) are insta-kills if they get you outside of your ship, and they can deal 60 - 80% of your Sea Moth's health. Crab Squids and Crab Snakes deal 40% of your health, and the Squids are going to be able to disable your Sea Moth with an EMP. Sea Treaders deal that much damage as well. Ditto Sand and Bone Sharks.
You can also easily run out of food/water if you don't pay attention/aren't growing plants yet. It's possible to stay out for so long in deep water that you will die of those causes, too. The deeper you go, the more you swim, the more food and water you go through.

They're in the cavern parts of Grand Reef if that helps
>>343279320
You think that's bad? I was exploring the Mountains Biome for some wreckages in my Sea Moth, and I ran into 3. Fucking 3 of them. Turn on my lights, see a Reaper. Turn 90 degrees, swim forward 5 feet. See another Reaper. Turn 90 degrees again, see a 3rd, this time it's fucking charging at me, and I do the Reaper juke maneuver and manage to get the fuck out of there alive.
The Mountains is a hell of a Biome.
>>343276812
There arent, the shroom cave is enormous and has several entry points across the map
>>343278974
Wait, is that two reapers?
I am patently waiting for a mod or something that makes all hostile creatures into passive ones because I am a huge pussy
>>343279470
No, there are several mini-caves with one or two mushrooms in them. There's one near the Floating Islands that has only one in it, and no naturally spawning Crabsnakes or Oculus'.

Yeah, big time.
>>343272426
What the fuck is that thing? Never seen that before. Is that a seamoth modified or something?
>>343279148
For sure, the game even has a hardcore mode so if you die once thats it.
Plus if you loose any items/subs you need to get them back/rebuild them after respawning in the normal survival mode..
>>343279637
Yeah I did, it was fucking horrifying. I thought it was just one that kept chasing me. Guess I ran into more than one.

>>343279575
Multiple reapers. They're not that bad, though. It's pretty easy to juke them if you know how.
Are you a bad enough dude to build a base in a known reaper habitat?
>>343279713
It's the Exosuit. Made for very deep exploration, equiped with thrusters and arms that can pick up materials without getting out of it. Can be upgraded to hold a weapon on the right hand.
>>343279786
>that one reaper RIGHT next to the island
I didn't notice it the first time I got there and tried building a base. fuck
>>343279467
I lucked out when going to the mountains. Only had the one Reaper on the other side of a outcrop that had the parts I needed to scan.
And THAT was bad enough, can't imagine having to deal with 3 at once, fuck that

Pic related is supposedly going to spawn in the Mountains biome as well. What the fuck is down there that's so important? The big wreckage with the Sand Sharks next to it only has the 2 pots, the benches, the desks, the chairs, and some LED light fragments. All of those, except for pot 3, as far as I know, can be found elsewhere. Why is there so much defense?

>>343278957
they do, i got two jellyray eggs, now i have like 20 of them
>>343280226
Not just any wrecks, but specifically one behind the Aurora.
There's also a wreck with a Stalker behind a closed door. They got me good with that one.
>>343280226
I just had the little thrust thing.
I ran away from it and got into a crack it couldn't get into but I couldn't get out and I drowned.
Better than letting that thing touch me.
>>343270195
Seems kinda weird for a fish with a light on its head to be so near the surface.

Because they are biologically engineered versions of pic related, which are found 300 - 700 m deep.

>>343280386
Pretty much every life form in the ocean is luminescent, reapers are also attracted to radiation so another large radiactive event may have occured.

>>343278876
Thanks, but I wasn't intending to build a first base there as a start anon. It's a long term goal.
After spending months at sea beating back everything the depths can throw at you, just pack it all up into a Cyclops and build a beach house to live out the rest of your days. Too bad there's no blueprints for aloha shirts.
>>343280481
KEK I had this happen to me at 2x the speed. I didn't know the moonpool could connect to your base and built it near my solar panels, it made my base flip the FUCK out with its power
what fucking build should I be downloading that's stable and has the most shit/is the latest to see if I want to buy this crap? trying this for only 2 hours isn't going to cut it boys
>>343280029
Then use the terraformer to dig in the shallows.
>>343280537
Yeah I don't plan shit. I don't even know where I've been. I feel like things could have gone worse.
Still a bit buggy, fun though
>>343280537
I sweeped through the entire Dunes while stopping to admire the stonehenge shit and did not run into a single Reaper

Fun fact, there's a reaper relatively close to spawn. It's the one that comes to you if you dump your radioactive rods near your base.

This game looks sweet but it's another Early Access game. Sell me on it, /v/. What makes this better than the other survival early acces titles? I will add that I love the premise, I love the ocean.
