What is this? is it multiplayer only like Rust? any issues? looks fun though even though op's screenshot is the only thing ive ever seen about this game
>>343269916
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
>>343270017
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.

Not exactly. You'll need to fully upgrade some end game vehicles to do so.
Played about 30 minutes, the spaceships reactor has blown up and now if I swim to the kelp I die...
Wtf do I do now?
>>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.

>>343273564
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.

Reapers obviously stemmed from the precursors. They seemingly do their dirty work and look too similar for it to be a coincidence
Is there a bug with the graphics settings? It seems like sometimes they get mixed up. Highest looking like minimal, minimal looking like recommended and so on.

cheeki breeki iv damke
>>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.
>>343274706
This looks like a Tyranid mixed with Lizardman.
t. Warhammer fag
>>343274706

>>343274706
Oh...
Well i'm sure they're related somehow.
>>343274937
The precursors are aliums though
>>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?
The concept for this just sounds like clusterfucking ideas into one EA survival shitshow

>>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
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.

Aurora, I'd say. Repair the reactor, get the depth module, then explore the island while you wait the three days.
Wait, you can make bases and shit? I thought you just floated around underwater, or something. Adding now.
>>343276090Reapers come wherever you dump spent reactor rods

>>343276145
>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.
>>343276381

It was on the front page of a steam sale, to answer your retarded question.
>>343276521
Steam sale. Best deal so far and the concept and execution are so well done that it drew a lot of attention. The sale is what convined people.
>>343276521
It's on sale and word of mouth is how /v/ spreads word about many games. No shilling, the devs are too busy actually doing work on the game.

>>343276432
It makes sense, but fuck if it isn't annoying. I just grab a fuckton of Lithium before I get my Sea Moth and plaster one long hallway with reinforcements. +7/wall is great.
>>343276425
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.
>>343276735
>One of the shroom caves near a reaper nest
I didn't even know there was multiple shroom caves
>>343276675
I was mostly talking about how the hatches look as though they should be flooding your base every time you go in/out of them
>>343276470
>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
>deep sea monsters
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. But the fish... down here they GLOW. There's one that's 90% eyeball. Snakes the length of two glass corridor sections.

Baat Torgal's Log #2
ive got a knife, fins, two tanks, and a radiation suit. what should i do now
>>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
>>343277010
>the plantlife is inedible
>been eating creepvine samples for awhile
>>343277040
Practice stabbing stalkers to death then go to the Aurora and stab the white stalker
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.
Stilll waiting for the exosuit or the removed terraforming update to play again.

They're going to remove multi-purpose rooms from the list of starting recipes.
>>343277928

>>343277928
That kinda sucks. What about the alien containment?
>>343277928
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.
>>343278061
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.

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

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.

>>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'.

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?

There's also a wreck with a Stalker behind a closed door. They got me good with that one.

I ran away from it and got into a crack it couldn't get into but I couldn't get out and I drowned.

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

Then use the terraformer to dig in the shallows.

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.

Are....you me?
>>343280836
It full releases in August/September and is going to get continually updated afterwards as well.
Also, it's really, really fun to explore, and THE best horror game on Steam. Nothing compares to the completely organic horror of the game. You don't get railroaded, there aren't any jump scares, and the feel of dread you get when you can't see the seafloor and hear a Reaper call... fantastic.
Story is told to you completely non-linearly, and you can go the entire game without knowing about it. There is so much to do that you can wrack up 15 - 20 hours on a single run through.
>>343280481
i was in the other subnautica thread where anons had some really cool ideas for base attackers. Leeches that drain your bases power, a critter that has camouflage and can slither in your base through the moonpool and fuck with your shit.
And general creeping paranoia for being alone so long that you start hearing muffled voices, bulkheads opening and closing and taps on the glass. And the "Welcome Home Captain" message playing when you're already inside
>>343280627
What ever the latest one is?
I made a new file, what should my goal be this time?
>>343280967
>It full releases in August/September
OK, I think this kinda seals the deal for me. Thanks. I've always loved under water exploration AND giant underwater monsters have always been my biggest fear, so I'm sure this horror game would actually work on me.
>>343281024
Oh fuck no, that would be far too spooky, and I say that as someone with 80 hours in Subnautica. The extra "Welcome Home, Captain" thing is a huge warning sign, considering there are sentient creatures that kidnapped/murdered every other human on this planet, out of 6+ wreckages over 30 years.
I tensed up when I read that.

>>343281024
>the "Welcome Home Captain" message playing when you're already inside
mine glitched up because I use my moonpool as my main entrance so now whenever I leave my base to go into the open ocean I hear "welcome home captain"

You can always collect fish and drop them by your base.

>Story event where you meet the precursors

Once the Transfuser update hits, Devs plan on having creatures attack your base once you get it.
Good thing Transfuser is way late in the game. Like 10+ hours in.
>>343281024
>And the "Welcome Home Captain" message playing when you're already inside
>>343280836
So far all the build I've played have been fully functional even for a early access game. The devs are releasing consistent updates every month. It's going to have a end point/story so it shouldn't be stuck in development hell. Exploration is both rewarding and terrifying.
It should be releasing in like 4 months time I think? So it might be best to wait until it's all done if you're unsure or want the full experience.
Other wise if it sounds like you'll enjoy it why not go for it while it's still on sale.
>>343281373
I'm so glad the Devs are finally recognizing fuserly challenged people. We need more representation in video games.

Not enough in the game for there to be one. It's a singleplayer, exploration based game that you're better off going in blind.
There really isn't all that much to do, but it's spread out significantly enough that you can get 15 - 20 hours trying to find it all. Half that time if you actually spoil yourself and look up where to go. A general would defeat the purpose of the game.

>>343281927
To be fair, I'd still shit a brick if I turned a corner and saw one slithering down a hall at me.
>>343281927
It would get stuck in your corridors if you built them long enough. Couldn't grab you, either, since its graspers are clamped shut to fit in the base.
But only if you've reinforced your base. Did you get those lithium reinforcements yet, anon?
>>343281867
I'll tell you, caroline
>>343281517
That cool be a cool gameplay mechanic, a switch to activate/desactivate your base when you're away or when a swarm of Reapers is too close.
Heck you can do so much with a few roaming Reapers. Maybe a tracker, and once you make them eat it (for example by putting it in a Peeper, then make a Stalker eat the Peeper, then lure the Reaper to the Stalker), you can check their position in the scanner room.

Plus they're going to remove transforming to improve performance so that could make everyone need to restart their saves as well.

>>343284024
I'm surprised it kept them inside. Welp, time to get a repulser and blast them out the moonpool
so i bought this game because of this thread, but is there any goal other than survive? i found a base with a heat signature in it which seemed interesting but i ended up drowning before i could check was was on a PDA
also how much time do i have to invest before i can just start building a base, because i'm searching for the shit to make the habitat builder but i cant find shit

Build an extension then lure them into it and trap them with a bulkhead/delete a connecting hallway, you can have your own zoo
>>343284231
i guess the shilling worked, lol
>>343284231
At the moment they only real goal is survive/fix the Aurora/go as deep as you can/explore. More will be coming with the updates though.
Everything you need to get started will be around the life pod you spawned in. if you're stuck for anything the wiki has a lot of good information.
But for the most part just look around in caves and such and you should be good. At least to start.

>tfw no cool docking station or huge underground docking bay with a fucking huge metal door for the Cyclops
>>343281024
What about something almost human that enters though the moonpool and then looks around you base for you? I just think it would be cool to be hunted around a bit, and maybe add some extra function to glass walls, since then you would spot it easier.
So if you hear bulkheads opening or the "Welcome Home Captain" you would just have to GTFO and lure the thing out.

eh, it's pretty but it's no Crysis. however game is unoptimized as fuck so expect 1-2 second hangups every 100 feet. devs are going to take out the Terraformer (which is the source of the game being so unoptimized) so that the game will run smoother

Oh damn, guess I'll just try it out then. Thanks anon!
>>343285727
Honestly it's not so bad after a while. You get oddly used to it and next thing you know you're staring at the abyss telling it to fuck off.
>>343285551
Having a Warper chasing you through your base would be pretty scary. It could act like a teleporting ghost with scythe arms that kills power by just being in that part of the base.
will they fix the scanner room thing soon?
Why does the water filtration system drain so much power? I build three and even a nuclear generator with 4 rods + bio generator with 8(?) Oculus isn't enough during night time.
>>343286559
hopefully.
next big 'stable' patch is rumored to be either today or tomorrow on July 1st but those are unconfirmed. hope its soon, need dat exosuit
>>343286559
Supposed to be a patch soon. Hopefully it will be fixed in that.
Can't see why it would though given I think everyone gets that problem.
>>343279786
Are those island reapers new?, I built a base there a few updates ago and didn't see any

Was a good haul but holy shit that Reaver came out of no where.
Is there like perma death in this game?
>>343287192
You have the option to choose it at the start of a game I believe.
>MFW I figured out you can charge perimeter defense and the stasis rifle
Well because of your stupid interesting thread, I just bought an Early Access game.
I hope it'll be worth my 13 canadian loonerydoos.
>>343271939
Too bad it's got retard arms that ruin it's intimidation factor.
>>343287359
It is. The game is barely worth 20 so getting it on sale for around 10 makes it a good value purchase for an early access game. The devs have been steadily providing updates and trying to improve the game. Lots to do in it.
>>343286893
Because water filtration isn't easy.
>ever needing more than one
There is your fucking problem
>>343287529
One water filtration is just a bit less that what you might requires to become self-sufficient.
Two is just right, three is overdoing it.
>he doesn't wear the stillsuit
>>343287659
One + 1 lantern tree is easily enough.
>>343287359
I hope you fuckingenjoy it
>>343287698
>>343287659
>>343287529
What's the point of water filtration when you get Lantern Plants? I haven't needed salt to preserve food for a long time.
I think Lantern Plants are too OP and am considering modding in a tech tree/dependency tree to make them less so. Having a water filtration as a per-requisite and proper lighting should be the bare-minimum. Maybe nerfing its growth speed to decorative status unless you place it in a specialized greenhouse/environment as well?

is the aurora supposed to assplode in the beginning? I barely got anything near the capsule I'm in and it's fucking night time and there's radiation what the fuck
>>343288040
Yes. It doesn't be come explorable/can fix it until after it explodes.
>>343287725
>lantern tree
Fuck, I never even thought about it. I should just build a bunch of growbeds and start an underwater farm.
>>343288040
Yes, but the radiation doesn't affect you unless you wait for a very long time and at most forces you to wear the lead suit around it. You only need to fix it if you plan to dive deeper around the area and need a rebreather.
night time is dark as shit.. am I supposed to fucking move out without any protection or weapons in to dark waters knwoing that somewhere in there are things waiting to eat me? fuck me
>>343288159
Just use two pots, it is more than enough.
>>343287936
Filtrated water + salt to preserve food if you want to go for a long run I guess
Am I going to have a heart attack if I play this? Extremely phobic of deep, dark water and what it might hide, but find it alluring all the same.
>>343288364
dude you barely get to do anything and then it's night time for the first time
and it gets real dank
>>343288364
yes, I'm the same way and I can't play it alone.
go for it
>>343288364
Depends on how bad your phobia is I guess. To me it's more comfy than spooky.
will there ever be a linux version?
theres a serious bug that makes it unplayable in wine.
>>343287936
>>343288316
Honestly this. Like Lanterns are amazing but go rotten really fast. So if you need to carry something with you for some long distance adventuring you'll need the preserve food + Filtrated water.
That said they probably should look into this a bit more.
>>343288307
You can make flashlight out of junk in the first area and the Seaglide comes with a flashlight as well.
>>343288316
Eh, usually I just bring a heated knife to cook fish since they are in practically every biodome but to each his own I guess. Cyclops with a potted plant is basically I-win though,
>>343288574
Just put lantern trees in your cyclops.
>>343288307
You'll generally want to avoid being out at night until you get some lighting equipment.
The shallows are pretty safe all the time though, so long as you don't go stirring up the crash fish. Gasopods can hurt you but they're defensive only and bioluminescent so they can't surprise you.
>>343288689
Wait you can do that?
>>343269812
I'd really like to buy this game, it seems so fucking comfy. All I want is a base like that for me alone under the sea so I don't have to see any other humans.
>>343288828
If you have the 400% efficiency module you can put cell chargers in it and charge them
Starting a base at the grand reef.
Supply runs are making it suffering though.
>>343288828
You can basically live in your cyclops forever and never need a base.
>"uuuuh guys I don't know, I'm afraid of submarine games"
>"is there scary monsters?"
to hell with that, diving in an underwater grotto just to understand halfway you can't go back and have to press on and you can't see the end of the tunnel is the most terrible thing that could happen underwater
>>343289068
The worst thing that can happen underwater is diving deep enough that you look down and see only murky blue, and look up and also see only murky blue.
Fucking scuba diving man, I don't know why I did it.
DON'T SWIM DOWN WHILE LOOKING UP
How long until release?
I ain't buying early access
>>343289405
August, apparently.
I don't think so though, there's still a lot of stuff to be implemented and I don't think they can do all that before october or so.
is this game worth it if you don't have any creativity? i mean how much of the games enjoyment for you includes being creative? would it feel empty or boring quickly if you just did what is necessary to progress?
>>343289068
did you died?
>Took me over ten hours to build the cyclops because I kept fucking around instead of going to get the last engine blueprint
Holy shit, but now I've packed my things and I'm ready to get bored of a life at sea and start again after a few more patches have come out
>>343289817
Do you like sight seeing and running around monsters? Half the game is building your base in some inhospitable hell hole and the other half is getting there.
>>343289163
You've not dived in the Baltic sea.

Scared the shit out of me every fucking time.
>>343289817
This game has hardly any creativity involved for the player.
You just build a base, the only thing you can be creative about is room layout. Base building actually has a practical purpose because you unlock tech that way.
Everything else is progress to let you explore deeper and longer.

I guess those caverns are under the entire map then.
>>343290254
I found that area too.
Not sure what it's going to end up being.
>>343290254
Huh, not actually the pic I wanted to post.
>>343290308
I think the Sea Emperor is supposed to be down there.
Do fish respawn? It feels like the shallows is getting more and more empty since I started my playthrough.
>>343290443
I think everything except supply crates and corals respawns.
>>343273380
The great white replaces the "invisible" wall you get in most games.
You don't have to mod Crysis for it to be here.
>>343274654
fuggggg is this real?
>>343290443
Any area you settle seems to eventually scare all the fish away. My base at the grand reef now has no fish around it. I have to travel out a bit to find fish anywhere at any of my bases.
>>343274654
>698m
>>343291018
What about it?
>>343276735
How do you find these guys? I'm in the shroom cave and I've never seen one
>>343291036
I didn't even know the game goes that deep
>>343291082
they live in the jellyshrooms
how is the perfomance of the game? apparently the game likes to lag. i have a 950m. will i be fine?
>>343291105
Theres a picture about of someone who went down like 4k
>>343291192
It's pretty shit right now.
>>343274654
that's the lost ruins or caves
it's supposed to be a bunch of dead ancient sea creatures and some spooks too
>>343291219
Must have cheated then, no upgrades let you go that far without imploding.
>>343290308
>>343290254
It's an unfinished biome,
This guy is going to live down there.
>>343291176
I'm in the jelly shroom cave but I've never seen one
>>343291397
Well they're there.
They come out of the giant mushrooms.

Why is the flashlight designed to look like a hair dryer?
>>343291528
It's designed to look like a flashlight.
how you fags like my base?
>>343276587
and what's being added in that update?
>>343291706
How is it not imploding? I see no reinforcements anywhere.
Might take a look at this cause /v/ is kind of obsessed with it. It is an exploration game where you build an ocean base?
>>343291706
too many decks
not enough windows
scanner room bugs the sound
>>343291821
What do you mean it bugs sound? I just built one.
Considering getting this. Is it really light on content and I'll be done with it after like 8 hours? I'm really concerned about the fact it's early access.
>>343283536
whats lookin up do
>>343291816
Yea that's pretty much it.
It's still in alpha with a lot of development going on.

>>343291928
it breaks a lot of the ambient sounds like waves and animal noises
>>343271571
I just started playing and cannot see land anywhere. I'm so confused.
>>343292138
Is it permanent? Did I just fuck up my game?
>>343291298
Just go in creative and sub have no depth limit.
The deepest biome is about 1200-1300 meters deep. The void around the map easily go beyond 5000 though
>>343291710
The sea dragon leviathan, which is bigger than any creature in the game currently
>>343292167
They should come back if you remove it and restart the game.
>>343292161
It's hidden in the mist.
>>343292161
sssh no worries
>>343292167
i think dissassembling it fixes the sound
>>343292238
what is that? is that a boat you can walk around on or something?
>>343279786
how do you juke them
>>343292375
yep, the cyclops. slow as fuck
>>343292375
Submarine, and yes.
It's essentially a mobile base.
>>343292264
What mist? This is so confusing now I want to play more but I'm stuck at work for 3 more hours goddammit.
>>343292452
It's not that slow. It's slower than the Seamoth but pretty sure it's faster than the Seaglide
>>343292501
>tfw I have an 12 hour shift in an hour
I hate my fucking life.
>>343292501
When you surface you should be able to see mist in the distance, if you swim towards it (and don't die on the way) you'll end up on an island
>>343292570
>12 hours

Only saving grace is I don't have to be on the phone the whole time but it's still suffering.
I'm gonna find a different job soon.
So do all these extensive bases provide any kind of productive value in terms of material provided or are they mostly decoration? Factorio has made me really picky about base building games.
>>343292654
That actually sounds pretty rad. Thanks anon.
>>343291785
Got a room full of reinforcments on the southern hubb and foundation is under the entire base

looks cool but i don't pay more than 5€ for single player games.
So any suggestion for somebody starting?got the game on a no legal maner since i didnt know if it will run on my computer
Heh, I played a few hours of this but quit after exploring the aurora. Fell off of it and got stuck at some invisible walls. Didn't know it was actaully this extensive.
>>343292909
>i don't pay more than 5€ for single player games.
You're the cancer killing this industry.
>>343269812
should i pirate this game?
is there a good version out that's worth pirating?
>>343290883
from my experimentation shit mostly stops spawning if you have more than 1 or 2 big aquariums, especially if you stack them on top of each other.
I think they might eat up the limit for fish and that and prevent stuff from spawning because the max limit is being reached from your base aquarium
Is there a fishing net or something or is the game still ruined by having to fucking catch a fish and eat it every 2.5 fucking nanoseconds?
and why the fuck do i have to find parts for the submarines, that is such bullshit padding just to pretend like the game is longer. You dont need to find shit to assemble anything else. I wouldnt even have bothered trying that shit out if not for console commands.
>>343292876
Newfag here. This is my base
>>343293016
Nah, that's not it. My two bases have no fish around them and the starting area has no fish around them and I only have an aquarium at one of them.

Build a base
Put a tank in a room
Put two fishes in that tank
You now have infinite fishes
>You dont need to find shit to assemble anything else
Yes you do?
Does the game have underwater alien facilities like in Ecco?
>>343293174
>Put two fishes in that tank
>You now have infinite fishes
Not sure how 2 fish equal infinite fish.
>>343293239
Well when a fish and a fish love each other very much, they make infinite baby fishes which you use to feed the bioreactor and yourself
>>343293239
remember the old dwarf fort meme of lmao 2 cat
well its kinda like that
>>343293239
They breed fast.
Has anyone else had their lifeboat drift away?
I'm not sure it drifted so much as a gasopod or something bumped it and launched it about 1.5km away. I had to swim out and push it all the way back. I've since built a ring of pipes around it to keep it from drifting.
>be exploran in my fuck ayy lmaos submersible

Is this game online?
>>343293538
ya its on steam
>>343293538

>>343293205
There are some derelict bases that belonged to the crew of a ship that came to the planet before yours crashed, and various pieces of wreckage from your ship.
There aren't any traces of sentient aliens though, just alien sea creatures.
>>343293538
no :( !!!!!!!!!
>>343271449
How do you light your base? Mine is dark
>>343291237
is the perfomance good enough that you would recommend the game? i mean i understand that an early access game isn't perfect.
I read "seabases" as "sadness"
Why does everybody in the Drakengard verse have to be such dummies?
;__;
Especially Nier
Any way, how is combat in Subnautica?
Are you fairly weak and do you have to rely on running away? That would be cool.
>>343293638
is lying
it's online, >>343293538
>>343293424
Is it normal that I can clip through one of the sunken escape pods?
I just wish they would add a lot more creepy shit. Maybe a few unike monsters that are hard to find or something.
Does this happen when you go too deep?
https://youtu.be/FkhBPF4yfkI?t=26
>>343293686
There a little microstutter and pop-in, but otherwise it runs fine on my 390.
They're supposed to do an optimization pass in August-ish.
>>343293693
You're supposed to be weak and rely on avoiding potential predators, but you have a knife and the ability to strafe so you're pretty powerful
>>343293863
Yep.
>>343293174
>>You dont need to find shit to assemble anything else
>Yes you do?
I mean you need to find materials but they arent 5 specific fucking parts scattered across the map, you just pull the design out of your fucking ass after finding materials, but oh no, a submarine, you gotta spend a dozen hours looking around on the shallow sea floor
thanks for the fish thing though that went straight over my head, i never expected there to be fish breeding
>>343293928
Can you fight with the sub?
>>343294002
Nigga look harder, you need to find fragments all over the fucking map for the most interesting pieces of tech.
>>343294046
You can ram shit with it and it's pretty effective
>>343294046
You've got torpedoes, a defense matrice and the ability to ram the fuckers.
>>343293863
Currently you can swim at any depth, though you use more oxygen at depth. I think this is temporary until further things like the exosuit are fully implemented though.
Subs have a depth limit, and will take on hull damage beyond it. Bases also have strength limits and can rupture and flood if not built properly.

it's not even good space sci-fi

What's wrong with space shit famalam? Alien is good, so is Event Horizon.
>>343294639
europa is thought to have life because it has tectonic plates of ice that rub against each other creating oceans and shit
now i actually want to watch it

speaking of movies, what are some of your favorite underwater/deep sea movies?
The Abyss is a fav of mine
>>343295084
The Sphere is neat
>>343281825
well, you need the required biome and game mechanics first to make the exo an requirement.
right now the active and inactive lava zone is a barren wasteland without anything to do anyways , and you can reach it with your seamoth or cyclops
>In the cyclops, gonna ram a reaper
>Seamoth AI starts shouting at me about crush depths
>Sonar's going mental
>That shit that tells you if you're gonna collide starts pinging like fuck because I'm ramming
>Reaper screech
>Another reaper screeching in the distance
>Drop to 2 fps
I honestly feel sick after all that shit happened at once
page 10 boyos.
looks like we're sinking into the abyss.
it was a good ride

Any upward mobility?
Like, is it the type of job you can work for 6 months then work your way up to something sane?
>>343294979
looks stinky mate
>finally got a battery charger
I know batteries are piss easy to make, but its kind of a pain in the ass making a new one every five minutes my seaglide runs out of batteries. Ive gotta say though one of the most frustrsting things in this is that you stop seeing quartz almost entirely past the shallows so if i want to make anything with glass i have to swim all the way back from my fucking 200 meter base.
>cyclops keep listing and floating to the surface
>think it's bugged
>discover I have a fucking floater attached to my hull
so is there an update coming in july? what this transfuser update thing?
>>343296150
Some of the deep areas have lots of quartz. It's hard to find in the intermediate depths though.
>>343290213
haaaaah fuck that
>>343296223
Its a pain cause im still on solar panels while i get everything in order and you need quartz for so much. Also people who cant find salt are brain damaged this fucking stuff is everywhere god damn
