I got popped out of my base deconstructing a window, and I decided to take a little walk.

I had a very fun time hopping through the giant mushroom trees, but now I am very far from my home and I am lost. The way behind me is unscalable. The only way now is forward. And down.

I am now very far from my home, and I'm afraid I'm lost...

>Will we all have to start completely new games to fully experience it?

Almost certainly. I imagine full release will break whatever saves people have.
>>
>>147778387
They're adding bits and pieces right now, the major implementation won't be until near release time. and yes, because all of the major updates breaks saves, especially when they remove terraforming in the future.

Honestly, I kind of hope the story is all implemented at once on release so it can all stay a surprise. Tweaking the story's balance and gameplay can come post-release, but you can only experience a narrative for the first time once.

The closer you are to your lifepod you are the easier you are to find if the ayys are hunting you. Starting on day 15, active ayy scouts start actively looking for you. If you're still set up in the shallows you're fucked. If you're deeper or in reaper territory they'll be less likely to find you and attack your base

I can see now why it's balanced to be a mobile base rather than just a big transport vehicle. I'm guessing once the precursors get aggressive, not even being deep as fuck will protect you forever.

It sounds terrifying but also rad as hell. Though a 15 day limit seems a bit tight for new players.

I find it very, very wrong that I have more gold in my lockers than I have silver, a whole lot more gold than I know what to do with.

Someone mod in some gold plated base parts so I have something to spend all this gold on.

It might be a bit of a turn off for new players who don't want to just stick to freedom.

I'll be honest. The whole "captured prisoners underwater" and "freeing the sea emperor" part of this story is very bad.
It's child-like in the ways that it's creative without direction and not very fitting of the rest of the game. I'm really hoping they reconsider it, just do what all the great scifi writers do when they don't have a very good story: copy Dune.

Be smart instead of stupid, friend. Dune is the LoTR of scifi in that it's the most "inspiring" work that "inspires" artists to slather their story with hijacked bits of it.
>>
>>147798225
And none of it applies to the story that the devs have made. Now explain how and why what they made is childish and "doesn't fit the rest of the game".

That'd be way better. Current story feels liberal and neutered as shit. ARK's also feels disjointed and unfitting of a survival game on dinosaur island.
This would be like Space Engineers having some shitty plot about how other engineers are trapped in Meteor Prison and you have to get John Madden to blast them out. Also you sound like a twat so you're probably the guy behind the writing with how much you're defending it.

I don't like how they increased the Seamoth's turning speed though. The max deviation of the Seamoth to the player's view is locked closer together and it makes the sub unrealistically responsive, way too snappy.

Hello fellow humans. I'm here chilling, eating fish byproduct, and posting on this Mongolian picture book forum just like you. I've got this crazy idea, dawgs. How about you all posts detailed screenshots of your secret underwater bases? That would be wiggidy wack.

And did y'all hear about the new knocking fish added in the July update? It sounds like someone loudly banging on your base door. A funny prank, no need to check the source of the noise, homies.

Potted plants should go in the bridge where there is sunlight.

Also, are there any plans to edit the layout of the Cyclops? The vehicle bay is kind of awkwardly designed because it doesn't let you reach the upgrade panel and storage compartments of the Seamoth. If there was a button to raise and lower the Seamoth and the Cyclops was edited to be slightly wider to accommodate this, that'd be great.

What a nightmare. I guess once the exosuit is properly implemented it will be used exclusively to explore down there.

Maximum depth for the Cyclops is around 1200m, so yeah the Lava Zones and Sea Emperor Prison are Exosuit-only.

More than one reason to use the radiation suit would be nice too.
Having to do temperature control would be great, so you need to make heaters or air conditioners that constantly drain power to keep your base livable.

There's several more biomes incoming, with an arctic biome in the works. Temperature will become more of a problem along with pressure, that's something they're not putting in until later. Handling the Uranium Rods for the Nuclear Reactor should require the Rad Suit, especially the spent ones. There is a defense-increasing wetsuit, it halves the damage you take from attacks, an insulating suit wouldn't be a big step away from it and would be nice to see especially if you need to work around hot vents or deep below where the temperature is very cold.
>>
>>147832757
Speaking of hot vents, how dangerous are the magma vents right now?
I'm cruising around exploring with a fully upgraded seamoth, the furthest I've gotten. And I haven't wanted to risk it going down the gullet of one of those.

>>147832891
You can get hurt by the fwooshing if you're right in it, and I think the rocks can hurt you if they hit you, similar to the falling pieces of hot metal on the Aurora. And I think with the latest updates they made at least some of the lava deadly, I was watching a video of someone playing just a day or so ago and they exited the Exosuit while it was standing in the lava inside the Lava Castle and died.

There's another vehicle upgrade in one of the consoles. One is in the reactor room, the other is in the hallway just before you go out onto the broken decks.
Otherwise the only unique thing is some coordinates that can be found in the crates in/around the ship. They just point to various formations and such on the map, places you'll come across sooner or later anyway.

>>147838957
It's not like that.

Far more ways to resolve an issue than by pointing guns at it. Which hasn't been done and rights have been slipping for a long time. Freedom is always bound tight by restraints or you couldn't define it.
And the military isn't so shit that it can't handle some unmilitarized yokels toting small arms.
The only reason the people would triumph against the government is that most of the military would identify as part of the people being supressed. This and only this empathy and social understanding is what holds the government at bay. And it it achieved all the same with or without weapons on either side.

this doesn't concern me, I live in a yuropian country that has anti-immigrant propaganda on the biggest tv channels every 30 minutes, there are also anti-immigrant bilboards
I don't have to be afraid that some faggot will shoot up the place I am at or a random cop will blow my face off because I was too scary
