One scary part of BZ was being in one of the Vent Gardens while a Chelcirate Leviathan constantly attacks the outside of it, waiting for you to leave.

Rupert Buttermilk posted:Aren't the tablets craftable once you pick them up? I thought that was a foolproof way to give the recipe to the player, specifically in case they forget to scan them. Yep. It used to be you had to scan them and what you said happened to a lot of players with the blue/orange tablet since you needed to craft an extra one in order to progress.

Id say dodging past squidsharks in the deep twisty bridges while plants try to eat you could get a little tense in BZ. BZ also forces you to cave dive and swim long distances away from your vehicle way more often. Also the shock module existed in the original subnautica, along with the more powerful stasis rifle so I dont get the complaints about being able to nullify leviathans. If anything BZ makes you encounter more of them since the ones in the deep area are in tight tunnels. You never have to encounter a fully grown ghost or reaper leviathan up close in the original if you dont want to.

ate poo poo on live tv posted:Subnautica: I've been playing this light survival, free roaming, exploration game for the past 20hrs and have had a great time organically uncovering the narrative. What's this? The last 5minutes of the game is fetch quest? drat. Subnautica: Wow the Grand Reef is pretty, this Trench is cool, whoa I can grab stuff off these giant swimming dudes! I enjoy all the amazing locations and visuals in this game! Below zero: Wow the Twisty Bridges is pretty, the Vent gardens are cool, whoa I can grab stuff from inside these giant jellyfish. Im glad they added more cool locations and visuals to the game.

Endless Trash posted:I only just beat Below Zero and I’m sure this has been discussed to death but I didn’t read it: how did Marguerite survive kharra? Its because she was a part of the TSF, theyre used to fighting Khaara. E: I know I was joking, but then again I just found this: quote:Not much is known about Marguerit. She was born and raised in the Mongolian States, a backwater corporate colony exploited for its mineral resources. She left home at sixteen and went from one mercenary job to another. Eventually, she did tours with the Mongolian Defense Force and Trans-System Federation. She held an esteemed career, before being dishonorably discharged from the TSF for going off mission.

I use the repulsion rifle more than the stasis rifle. Both are for when wildlife or warpers are harassing me while im trying to do something in an area. No better feeling than punting a warper 200m into the distance until it teleports back

JawnV6 posted:do other discussion groups for this game obsess over "terraforming" showing up in dev notes a couple times or is it just the folks here Game used to have terraforming. It had a terraformer tool that you could use to move voxels from one place to another. Buildings used to terraform the environment when you placed them. Hell you could dig in the sand. Theres an early playthrough somewhere where someone just dug straight down to the lava castle. The problem is it made save files massive (GB sized) and unstable, so they removed it.

Jabarto posted:I actually really like the oxygen plants because they let freediving be a much bigger part of the game. as opposed to something you did for 15 minutes in the first game and then never again. Maybe the quantity could be dialed back a bit but I like having them. This, I was able to dive from the crashed ship (forget the name) all the way to marges underground base and a little into the crystal caves. You also have to ditch your vehicle and free dive for the mining base and the crashed ship. You cant really free dive like this in the original game, the closest you come is exploring a wreck.

Rupert Buttermilk posted:The brain coral in SN acted similarly to the oxygen plants, whatever they're called, in BZ. They were not nearly as common outside of the safe shallows. SNs way of getting you to free dive was generally "your depth module only goes to 200m, this wreck is 210m deep". BZs is "here follow this oxygen plant into this labyrinth of caves". Or "your vehicle wont fit".

TSF, etc. from the NS descriptions for Frontiersmen:quote:The Marines as depicted in the game are the force mounted by the TSF agency. The Trans-System Federation (TSF) is an independent body funded by 37 trans-gov powers (governments or super-corporations that own and operate Phase Gates between solar systems) and given jurisdiction over trans-system affairs: as defined by a document called The Charter. The Charter is a comprehensive document, covering disarmament, fair trade agreements (most importantly, sharing phase gates), and certain basic civil rights that had become blurred (or tossed aside) during the dark times of the Expansion.

If you like the free cave diving parts of the game BZ has more of them and (imo) better ones. You actually have to get uncomfortably far from your vehicle and they introduced oxygen plants to encourage you to go further into caves without dying.

Oh the old seamoth was great before they nerfed the handling and the shock upgrade. You could harass, chase, and outmaneuver a reaper all day.

chainchompz posted:I'm curious what the dev's response to the upcoming unity pricing scheme is. Is Subnautica 3 going to use a different engine now? The response is to watch nintendo and microsoft sue unity into oblivion. Then use a new engine because either way unity probably wont be used too much in the future.

I think just givving big apex predators large patrol ranges in certain biomes would probably accomplish the same amount of tension without distracting too much from the fish petting simulator. Like if the reapers in the dunes actually patrolled the whole biome and no other behavior was changed. You have enough time to gather resources etc. between passes but you have to be wary.

Bifner McDoogle posted:Tbf, the only reason they didn't go bankrupt on the original is because the early access version took off with streamers. Youtubers getting spooked by Reapers are the only reason the company was solvent, so that sort of thing has always been part of what made the OG so good. The one consistent thing Ive seen with most of Unknown World's games is that they are able to nail a tense and suspensful atmosphere. Natural Selection is a PvP game but they still nailed the Aliens vibes you get when wandering down an empty corridor hoping a skulk wont jump out at you. Im posting in the Subnautica thread so Im sure you all know how well they did the atmosphere for this game. I dont trust UWE to not try to do everything themselves with way too little time and manpower (they made their own engine for NS2 which ran like poo poo for the first few months). So imo a Lethal Company Subnautica would be amazing as long as they dont try to do story or shove too much technical crap into it.

Eifert Posting posted:They should put a bunch of fake microtransactions in subnautica 2 with content that they never actually made and and in universe currency that you can't actually get. Whats weird is that shock upgrade was like that in early access during the original subnautica and it plus the more maneuverable seamoth meant you could literally dogfight a reaper and shock it to death. So they made it weaker but useable. I dont know why they changed it back in Below Zero.
