Finding the ultra high capacity tank fragments before finding the high capacity tank data box was apparently a common occurrence and I’m glad I wasn’t the only one.

Exploring the deeps of Twisty Bridges while “A Continuous Thrum” played was definitely a highlight of the game. Couldn’t possibly capture the vibe of the game any better

I succeeded at permadeath only because I tried to beat the game as quick as I could before a glitch could get me. Finished it in 7 hours, which is 7x the current speed run record but I’m pretty proud of it. Didn’t even use any vehicles

MikeJF posted:Cytherial do not read: Neat, he's gonna metagame himself into the ultimately-unsatisfying-on-first-play 'sunbeam just leaves due to orbital debris' outcome. it’s so cool they’re actually making the correct in-game moral choice given their order of discovery. If Riley was making contact with a potential rescue ship, but before they made actual plans to rescue him he discovered the active space gun that obviously shot down the Aurora, the ethical thing for him to do is cut off contact with the Sunbeam since he knows they’ll just get shot down too

I guess I always thought the radio was two-way and we were just not hearing Riley speak. You’re probably right though.

Cythereal posted:Besides a map, I feel like this game sorely needs a mobile resource scanner module for one of the vehicles instead of making me spam scanner bases to find just the right lumpy brown-gray smudge in the clutter that I want. Not really a spoiler for the next game but hey they made this! It’s a handheld mineral scanner that points you to the nearest mineral of your choice! hopefully it gets added to Subnautica 1.0

Grand Fromage posted:I didn't either. I don't know what the "pop in" people are always complaining about even means. Only issue I remember was having fish swimming around inside my base sometimes. ????? Pop-in has been a very common complaint about lots of different games for a very long time now. I don’t even know how to explain it without sounding like a patronizing prick.

Grand Fromage posted:I think it has something to do with texture draw distance? I have never noticed it as a problem, but I've also been gaming since games had draw distances of like ten feet. There are some Cities: Skylines assets where the LOD is done wrong and they disappear when you zoom out too much, that's the only thing I can think of. People post stories here of their Seamoth suddenly appearing inside of a mountain or something and I've never had anything like that happen. Yeah it’s usually a texture issue but Subnautica is special in that you can travel quickly enough that not only do the textures pop-in late, the solidity of the world also lags behind. So for example the first time I tried to find the PCF my prawn walked through walls that hadn’t yet had a chance to become solid (or visible) and I was terminally stuck forever and had to reload

ErKeL posted:Sea of Thieves for its generation of waves alone makes an incredible game. Rolling around in a boat with your mates trying to loot as much treasure as you can before returning home is a solid adventure. The first few nights were also unnerving for me because I just assumed some things changed when the sun went down. Maybe creatures get more aggressive or migrate to different biomes or something? That not being the case was a minor disappointment imo

The Cyclops is amazing and exploring it for the first time is unmatched in terms of shock and excitement. BUT since you can’t recreate that feeling in the sequel I’m glad the Seatruck exists. Perfect for the cave-heavy late game and discovering new modules is almost as cool as finding out the Cyclops has a dry dock* (Yes I know that info is in the database but I can’t read)

GD_American posted:I never understood people whose favorite vehicle wasn't the Seamoth. Beautiful little Scooty Puff Jr. sounding bastard that moves like a jet fighter in the water Seamoth’s best feature was its lack of free look which definitely amplified the anxiety of setting off into uncharted waters.
