I came home to my beautiful two-story spadefish tank and found every single fish dead at the bottom of the tank! Except for one! I think he went on a psycho fishy rampage and filled all his tank mates!

I'm still not clear on what the point of MP in Subnautica would be. Helping your buddy mine for titanium, I guess? 50/50 risk of a pubbie going on a knife spree in your base?

so i thought after you repair the lifepod it's supposed to stay in place? i was using mine in lieu of a beacon for my seabase and went on an expedition to get some cyclops parts and such. came back and it had moved several hundred meters and is still moving at a rate of like 0.5m/sec. now i don't know where my base is  The game has been really janky since the PRAWN update. Lifepods spawning in midair and upside down, bizarre texture pop in.. Might just wait until the next update to play again.

Yeah, I found the best thing to do is make a small base right at the beginning with two tubes, slap like three solar panels on it, then start moving things down there.

You should be able to build the base out of the lifepod, like make it a reactor or something.

I think I found out what happened to my habitat. I was getting a little carried away with the shocky thing on the Seamoth and I might've discharged it a little too close to the habitat and ended up frying my little spadefish family. Oops.

I remember the first time the lifepod drifted away from me. I literally built a current generator just to push it back. So the solution is just surround the lifepod with current generators.

Invalid Validation posted:You should be able to build the base out of the lifepod, like make it a reactor or something. The lifepod has those fancy self recharging power cells. Sure they are only 25 power each and do not refill too fast, but it's a thing that exists and would give more of a point to visiting lifepod wrecks if those could go towards installing some in a base. I know it's a gameplay concession (Thank god for it), but starting you out with infinite power, but leaving so much as solar panels gated so you can't even have air in your As for them droping multiplayer. While I'm not surprised, so far they have been holding as a "Maybe, if we can get another team to do it for us, post launch" idea. So I'm not sure where the "We don't want to make you wait for 1.0 over multiplayer" is coming from. Section Z fucked around with this message at 01:36 on Aug 31, 2016 |

Galaga Galaxian posted:Aren't solar panels easily found at the edges of the safe shallows? They could be spawned directly below your life pod, but the point there was how your default undersea survival base blueprints "Air sold separately". For a comparison. It'd would be like giving you an empty flare gun, and telling you "Eh, I'm sure you can scrounge up some flares somewhere". A Dev in passing said on the Steamforums they planned on making solar panels default due to that, but that was before the latest live changes and, well, here we are with locked MP rooms, but no default solar panels.

Galaga Galaxian posted:Aren't solar panels easily found at the edges of the safe shallows? Yeah, they're all over the safe shallows. Why did they decide to animate your character blindly sticking their left hand out for every single item you make. WTB a mod to turn that off. And why can't I make the big room from the beginning, exactly?

Yeah it would be great if you could make some sort of "lifepod anchor" and sink the lifepod after the "tutorial" of learning how to make stuff, then build your base out from the lifepod. Give the lifepod a witty ai complaining about being cramped or whatnot and you just added another character in a really unique way. It could integrate with some sort of server room or the camera room (and actually make you go scope things out).

HiKaizer posted:Probably because every third thread or post on the OF are asking about it. I meant in the sense of how until very recently, their whole stance on multiplayer was "IF it happens, not only would it be AFTER launch. We would be hiring an entirely different team to do it, like how Don't Starve did it". "We'll do it after 1.0, by hiring another team to do it" is the opposite of doing it personally and not launching 1.0 until it's done, basically. There are plenty of good reasons why they can't do multiplayer ever, including "Oh poo poo, yeah this game's code isn't in a state we could just hand it off to someone to staple on multiplayer." It's just the sudden emphasis on their own team doing it before launch that's odd. Section Z fucked around with this message at 02:24 on Aug 31, 2016 |

I get the feeling their plan hasnt changed, but rather antthing they say about maybr in the future is taken as a chancr of it being in at release. Much better to emphasize expecting no multiplayer and letting people be surprised if it arrives than dangling it out there and then being unable to do it. Unlike NMS they want their to be no vaguebess regarding a promise of multiplayer by just giving a firm no... for now.

Tutorial level is now: You're an engineer aboard the Aurora. You're doing some maintenance on the ships data center. You've uninstalled the Science Department's AI core, placed it into a temporary unit while you work on the main system that usually houses it. Boom, bad things. You grab the AI in its portable, limited little temporary housing, and head for an escape pod. Boom, now you have a companion, a dispenser of quests and clues, and something to drive exploration and base building, as well as tech progression. Now there's a bit more explanation for why you happen to be the magic man who can unravel the planet's secrets that isn't a complete Deus-ex-machina despite actually being a Deus-ex-machina.

If they added a Half Life style "day in the life" of whatever your guy was and then poo poo just goes wrong and you end up in the ocean. That would be awesome. The intro right now seems to have gotten worse with the new update because while you're "falling out of the space ship" you can see the ocean waves clipping through the pod.

An AI companion would probably just end being annoying. Maybe if it was really well writen, but odds are probably against it.

Not engineer. Our character clearly has no notable engineering skills. No, you are the Aurora Janitor, and you are mopping the floor in the core room cleaning up a spill when it calls on you to act to preserve it, on account of you being the nearest person capable of carrying it.

Your character is a space janitor, napping in an escape pod. He's awoken when the ship starts going nuts, and a team of real engineers tosses the ships AI at him when the corridor collapses on them. Your name? Roger Wilco. This game is now Space Quest 8: Kickstart My Heart. Edit: Changed the name to something a bit more punny.

Use the console command "Spawn" and it'll teleport you a small distance away. "Warpme" also brings you back to the cyclops, a seabase, or Lifepod 5. Whichever you last left. You can open the console by hitting F3 to make sure it's not disabled and then use the Tilde key ~

Met posted:The couple new creatures and the lava or did I miss something? I think it's down at the bottom. When I was playing yesterday the section was labeled lavalakes, now it has a long alphanumeric sequence and there's something that sure as hell wasn't there before. It's probably a precursor base, but it's just a big jumble of rectangles right now and there's nothing to do with it.
