Just wait till you see what's inside the structure on the island.

Yes.
I totally forgot to bring a knife though, so the whole time (I think it was 3 ingame days) I was dodging and tanking those fucking crabs, and using glider as a flashlight as well.

On an unrelated note, I crafted the reinforced suit. Unfortunately I forgot I was wearing lead suit the whole time, so I build my underwater base right inside the radioactive zone. Oh well.

The second island has a ping directly below it, so I guess you can go from there.

Also, are the maps randomly generated? I was looking up the wikipedia, and all the biomes and points of interests there are marked with coordinates.

Well that's disappointing.

Don't be a pussy and go to the Aurora.

Better bring a Seamoth and some supplies, though.

I've already visited Aurora. Got some blueprints at the cliffside, but I need something better to fight the sand sharks.

I don't know what Seamoth is but I don't have it. Won't be reading spoilers.

That particular spoiler contained the locations of three purple artifacts. You already got one of those, and you already visited every place where those artifacts could be found.

The Seamoth is a vehicle.
Sandsharks are not meant to be fought, none of the wildlife really is.

The Cyclops is such a pain in the ass to use, Jesus Christ. I thought that this thing would be really comfy, but I just keep smashing into everything.
I'm glad I'm not playing on Experimental, I probably would've already wrecked mine on the way to the

Git gud, and use cameras.

This thing is super comfy once you've become an interior designer.

I have a question, is the new precursor buildings in the lost river and stuff only in the experimental or is it in the current stable as well? I want to see it all but i also heard they made it so Reapers can damage the cyclops in the experimental build and I really dont want to have to deal with that

It was in experimental before the update, so it should be in stable now.

My base is coming along nicely. I decided to stay in the Safe Shallows near Lifepod 5 (for now) because it's in the center of everything, in case of emergencies I have Lifepod 5 right there, and I can swim outside for longer than 30 seconds without something trying to chomb my limbs, suck my blood, fuck my mind or feel me up with tentacles.

This is an absurdly large base.
Then again, I generally tend to build just large enough not to be uncomfy.

Well, I really wanted to give this place a headquarters kind of feel. A base that has everything I need to just mess around without having to care about anything, where I can retreat to when I need to recover from the mental scars I obtained in the depths of the ocean.

Grand Reef?
Don't worry, the really scary shit there doesn't go thump.

>Base in the shallows
>Not at 600m underwater

That's okay though, I still think it looks nice
And I imagine the view there is probably better too

Building my new base in the grand reef next to some thermal vents for infinite power. Trying to get the massive amount of titanium needed for my moonpool and upgrade station

Build your base in the mountains you pussy.

this game sure loves making windows a federal fucking issue, I don't want half my base to consist of featureless reinforced white corridors ;_;

Theme song for 500m and lower.

The big things in the depths that make the loud noises are friendly.

You're fucked if/when they add this thing.

I thought those were supposed to patrol the Void.

Besides, I don't think they fit through the opening to the tree cave-cove-grove-thingy.

Man I hope that is not the void monster. I was picturing the void monster to be some kind of super reaper all fucked up and bloated with the Carar bacterium, and all you ever see are its eyes before it fucking destroys your cyclops and kills you. The void would be way less scary if the only threat glowed brightly

Not a Reaper, probably.
Some kind of Leviathan, but not a Reaper. Reapers are for fucking with the Seamoth.

Didnt they plan to add the sea emperor or some shit to the void?
The thing that has in-world blurbs about it eating reaper leviathans

Also, base approved. Looks sweet

is multiplayer on the planned feature list at all?

No.

aw, that's a shame, this really seems like the kind of game that would be a blast to play cooperatively

On one hand having another player to share the load with, as well as ride along with you in the Cyclops sub would be pretty awesome, but it would also probably reduce immersion somewhat

Why, there's multiple people on your ship when it goes down.

I mean immersion breaking in that I will be less absorbed in starting at the foggy water and listening for the slightest sound of a predator if i have a friend i can see nearby to chat with. Maybe less intense or scary was a better way to put it, i dunno.

Next time, when you tell me to go to Aurora, can you also warn me about the Megaworms, thanks.

Reaper Leviathan just wants a hug.

Internal hug.

Came across this screenshot on the official forums.
Who caught who now, bitch

fucking owned

If this shit is legit, if there is video of it happening, nice.
If this happened in survival, holy fuck.

It is most likely that he mostly finished the cage, baited the monster in a small opening and then quickly swam around to place the final piece and lock him in. That or he just spawned it

I figured as much, yes.

I finally found the final parts I needed for the Cyclops. This thing is pretty amazing, but holy shit is it hard to drive. I accidentally smashed my Moonpool to pieces because I kept slamming into it with the tail.

I also upgraded my Seamoth to be able to go down to 900m. Now that I can go basically anywhere I please in this ocean, I suddenly feel like I don't know what to do next.

There's deeper.

And maybe set your cyclops up with the good shit, interior growbeds, fabricators, like 50 lockers, that sort of shit.

And I built a base there.

Need to make a run for creepvine seeds though.

EDIT: So I encountered a new 'friend'.

Set engines to ramming speed. Dick that Moby.

So what exactly are the teleporting squid-like things I've been seeing around in a lot of places?

Ricotez wrote:So what exactly are the teleporting squid-like things I've been seeing around in a lot of places?

Evil. A shank or a prawunch makes em back off.

I thought those were the Reaper Leviathans at first. I only recently realized they're way too small for that.

Which also means I have yet to actually run into a Reaper Leviathan.

If you want to see a Reaper, go hang out by the Aurora. You'll know when you see one.
The teleporting things are fittingly called "Warpers".
