So, what is the /v/erdict?
>>738784572shallow, literally
Why is every marketing thread you make pretending the game came out? Shit is early access garbage
>>738784572After below zero I don't care, I'm never buying anything from them again.
>>738784704That cringe shit just hurts. I haven't finished below zero yet. The Jeet PDA and ghetto MC are ass
come back in a year or two when they actually added content to the game
>>738784802Oh yeah I installed a voice replacer mod with a proper English accent as soon as I heard the indian PDA speak.
>>738784949Didnt know that was a thing. I'll look into it
>You can actually choose to play as a white guyAlready better than the other two games.
>>738785127Tether is a fucking tank Jesus fucking Christ she's bigger than the 3 other niggas
The council of bladderfish approves
>>738785127Sorry that was a bug. We'll fix it in the first patch!
>>738784572It's actually really, really good. It's Subnautica 1, but even better.The environments are diverse and interesting, the creatures design are... questionable at times (but it works), the basebuilding is so much better than the previous games and story is actually kind of engaging?The title drop after the intro pretty much tells you exactly what the game will be like. If that doesn't inspire aw in you, you probably won't enjoy the game.Also I really enjoy the whole narrative ludo of having the instinctive desire to explore the huge fucking tree in the distance, while there is a virus that makes people want to go to the tree. It's genius.There are some very big tells that the game just isn't finished yet though, like cutscenes not having sound effects or PDA text not being spoken. It might be a solid 9/10 after two years of development time.
>>738785167what the helly
>>738785249Have you finished the EA content yet?
>>738785349Nope, I'm still exploring new areas.
>>738785249I dont vouch anyone to buy it on EA nor full release due to whatever nitpicks they are pulling, but it's really as close as the first game compared to flopped below zero. Again anyone can try the game for free right now later when it's released on EA and judge
They need to add the "new blueprints ACK-quired" voice cause that dopamine hit is severely lacking right now
>>738784572its_ok
>>738785127do mutts actually consider this white
>that giant fucking squid between the starting point and the next areaI'm shitting my pants every time I go past that fucking thing, Jesus fucking Christ
>>738784572Sub designs look pretty gay, pass for now.
>>738785249>>738785381I beat the intro but I was unsure if I should hold off and wait for more content. Can you build bases and shit?
>>738785648>Can you build bases and shit?Nigga, this game is all about building basesYou're no longer constrained to just boxes and tubes, you can shrink and extend any part of your box now
>>738785648Yes
>>738785624I think it looks cute. Especially how you can detach and reattach the wings at any time to get through narrow corridors.
haha I'm glad you're enjoying yourself!you know what would be even better though? 7 minutes of voiced dialogue about things you don't really care about!bro just... let me play the game
So what happens if you swim to the tree
Gay
WHAT THE FUCK?!
>>738785745>7 minutes of voiced dialogue about things you don't really care about!One of my biggest gripes with the game. No way to turn that shit off.
>early access sloplol, lmao perchance
>>738785249What's the performance like
>>738784704bet the man babies in the office were giggling and kicking their feet to this shit.
>>738785127A filipina a faggot and 2 blacks, bravo...Is this their idea of "inclusivity" if anything they are making race relations worst (which is what i suspect they really want).
>>738785959pretty shit ngl I cant run over 60 fps on medium settings unless I do windowed mode with 1600x900 or some bullshit. I have a 3080
>>738785249do the creatures have any meaningful interactions between themselves/with environment this time?
>>738785959Reaching 40 fps on epic using TSR on quality.High with global illumination on medium gives me 60 fps.I have a 3070.>>738786075Not as far I've seen.
>>738786075I've seen creatures fight each other but its relatively sparse. everything just feels like the first game but polished
>>738786109>>738786046Lol as expected from an unreal sloppa
how many hours of kahntent there are in the EA release
>>738784572I stopped after the tadpole base how much more of the game is there?
>>738786295Who knows?
>>738786418Nice fidget spinner
>>738785528they absolutely do
>>738785127What a great looking lineup makes me want to have a blastening
>>738784704
>they kept the reddit humor but somehow the game isn't shithuhif the audio would shut the fuck up I'd even enjoy myself
I downloaded it, and when I realized it was really good I bought it. it's going to get updates and I support good games, not shit like "mixtape".and the focus is on the ocean, not land unlike below zero. also, the dash and abilities you can pick are very useful. lots of quality of life stuff too (craft from containers, queue items, etc).
>>738787118i agree but you sound like a faggot
>>738784572>early accessi remember when beta tester was a paid job
>>738784572I really like deep sea exploration stuff but I don't want to play as a negro. They can't swim and it ruins my immersion.
>>738787258>i remember when beta tester was a paid jobdamn you must be like 50
>>738787191well im being honest. I dont give my money to slop. this feels like subnautica 1 but better. I enjoyed the game so I bought it. It's cheap anyway. Better to support actual games rather than troon simulator 2k6.
zOMGWill it be on Game Pass?
>>738786109Hd, 1440 or 4k?
>>738787361i agree but you sound like a faggot
>>738787293well good news, you can be a normal white man. you decide.
>>7387873861080p, like God intended.
I played the first Subnautica for an hour and it sucked big time.
>>738787454How does it feel to lack a soul?
>>738785127are the nogs hard mode since they can't swim?
>>738787478negromancy and black magic lets you sequence break to endgame in like 10 minutes
>>738787293check the news, you can be white woman
>>738787402Damn, shit sucks, even for unreal sloppa, I also have 3070 and even mhw did better from what you reporting anon.I plan to play it on 1080p also, and my projector is 60fps max, but its kinda shit that game cant max settings on a fucking hd.
>game isn't wokeslop>gameplay is decent>polniggers will still shit up every single thread about it until the sun burns outsigh
>>738787654I have the 3070, tooI thought I‘d be good until PS6
>>738784704Bit of an emotionally overblown reaction to a few lines of cringey self masterbatory dialogue no?
>>7387876543080ti here with 1440p reso and high settings graphic, never went under 60fps unless crowded area
How much content is there?
>>738787685>game isn't wokeslop Lol keep coping pubehead
>>738787685hey just like mixtape!
so ive found that putting a poor sea slug into the bio reactor and putting it on overdrive is way more efficient than even using the materials they say contain high energyhas anyone found any fish that produce more energy?
>>738787737shit like that immediately breaks all sense of immersion, which is hugely important for subnautica in particularit's why so many niggas are bitching about the endless voicelines in 2 I think. it's one of those games where it needs to get the fuck out of your way if you are to have a good experience
>>738784572The narrative is much better and interesting. Active and passive mutations are neat. I like it so far.
>>738787754Did you use frame skip lel
>>738784704I don't get it.
>>738787754>unlessgrim
>>738787685>>738787737Samefag derail attempt
>>738787869no, no idea what that is desu
this is a billion times better as a game than mixtape yet journos will trash it, because they need to praise le billionaire nepo baby funded "indie" project with mutts.ignore journos. play this instead.
the way everything lights up at night is pretty cool. lighting is better than 1 in general.
>>738788094Blast xisters we need to beta test this inclusive and diverse game, if only we could get it to run on our integrated graphics
Why can't I access the inventory?
>>738788204>visuals are better than in game that was released 8 years agoNo way, I don't believe you, you are a liar
>>738787843Oh yeah for sure. I'm not saying the excessive dialogue and reddit millenial humor and preaching don't detract from BZ i'm just saying its a bit silly to get so mad you boycott an entire studio just because they made a sub par sequel of a game you love. I feel like the normal reaction after such a thing is warranted skeptism and downplayed expectation. Not the hysterical overblown response of a child.>>738787984Take your meds buddy
>>738788675Sounds like your slops gonna flop geg
>>738788675>"I won't buy anything from this company ever again">hysterical response
>Grounded 1 and 2 superior in all ways>Cartoony yet difficult. Rewarding building. backed by a huge publisher. Proven to make good games>........>SUBBYNUTTY WAHOO MARKIPLIER HERE
>>738784704Everyone wanted to be satisfactory and have all these little quips in their "big" indie games. This is what happens.
>>738788817Yeah, Subnautica 2 looks promising and all but the first game was something really special. I don't think they'll ever be able to match the first game in sheer cultural relevance or popularity but i wouldn't neccesarily consider that to mean that the sequal is a "flop". >>738788843Good job completely missing the point you dumb cunt.Let me be clear; Choosing to not buy anything from a studio isn't a hysterical response. it's the reasoning behind their decision that's completely stupid. They're acting like the studio fucked their wives and killed their kids. Like bro they just made a shit game. it's genuinely not that deep, they're just unreasonably sensitive.
>>738784704But I thought their future society was supposed to be much nicer? They've got space mongolians and replicators, and white people aren't allowed in space and guns are banned. How could things still be bad? Surely they're not just breaking the fourth wall, that'd be silly.
>>738789778I don't know why you're expecting people to not have a visceral response to whatever sort of real-world politics they disagree with. Both sides have been rapidly ramping up the dogmatism for the last 10 years, so either it's "I don't like that side, kill yourself" or "holy fuck I just wanna grill". The people who share said politics aren't going to like the game just for saying what they see as common sense.
>>738789778you're not fooling anyone.
>>738789778You're acting like the anons fucked your wife's boyfriend. Like bro they just made a post. it's genuinely not that deep, you're just unreasonably sensitive.
>>738787831holy shit is this real? Fucking based
I'm surprised anons are liking the game and it might even be good. The shitshow with development made me expect a bare bones release and the game not learning anything from BZ.
>>738784704Localizers strike again?
>>738788204that's crazy tell us more blasthaver
>>738791098Blast xisters this is a return to form
>>738784572wtf, this game didn't come out?>>738784704>After below zerowtf, below zero WASN'T subnautica 2?I played 1 and got bored before they added a story. Saw a lets player go through it and didn't care before they even reached the magma caverns. The game just isn't fun.I saw below zero had a black woman MC or something with a fatguy in the advert for no reason and decided "Oh, so it's not for me then". Then someone pointed out 1 had a maori cannibal as the MC and it made more sense why that also wasn't for me.>>738789761The twitter/elon quips for satisfactory start grating as soon as you play with someone who isn't both terminally online and left wing.And the worst part is realising your leftie friend is praising the company for picking an empowering female voice... when the voice actress is a free default microsoft voicepack and they're not actually paying a woman to do it... and you know if you tell him that, he'll say "It's supposed to be ironic! Do you think we're actually saving kittens and puppies by working for an AI???"I miss Factorio being the only factory game. It filtered these people.
>>7387910984-5 hours in of slow base building and finding resources and the only criticism I have is the music isn't as good as the first.There are parts of the soundtrack that's like a dam yoga session. The original guy would have actually done something with that. Part of the soundtrack here just sounds like sampled recordings not anything original. The composer has no balls. No creativity. They wouldn't dare to take it slow and challenge the listener in any way.
>>738791448I still regret boughtening satisfactory, only after launching did I realize it was unreal slop
>>738791545this but BG3 early access for 50$
>>738791449it was so bizarre that they fired the guy who made the psytrance trailers for 1st game that literally hooked everyone to try the game. Mind boggling
>>738791025i almost half expect some lore dump eventually about them being immortal or the source of life being water slugs and all that, couldnt have been a coincidence reminds me of bioshock
>entire game is a political statement on gun control>Fires their sound guy for having milquetoast political opinions on his private Twitter>Hamfisted anti-corpo message eventhough you owe your immediate abd continued survival to the very same corpo>Muttoid protagonist>Proceed to sell out with their not-sequel>Double down on progressive messaging and mutt creatures>Focus on several obnoxious characters that won't shut the fuck up>Try to commit fraudSubnautica was good by accident and didn't even do half of what it was clearly trying to do evident by how you never need to go to most locations of the map and the half finished systems for partial flooding on the cyclope and bases they never finished
>>738791594And yet they can use that nostalgia from the person they fired to make just as much money as if they kept him on staff. Why pay for the best when you can pay less and get slop? I guarantee the original music guy thought he was about to get paid for life and now he's back on the strugglebus.
>>738785127Is it me or do they look really uncanny?>everyone's 6 heads in height (really short with wacky proportions)>men are the same height as women>male bulges are bigger than female boobs>skunk hair on the latinx manThe men just look really, really weird
>>738785127>asian woman (wife)>white/asian male (self)>lower caste already canon and establishedholy shit it's perfect?!?
>>738784572It's good. Really a shame they still dont want anything to do with Simon, the original sound guy. Watching the first 15 minutes of a playthrough of Subnautica 1 and playing this game is a night and day difference. Other than that its a solid game as long as you pretend Below Zero doesn't exist.
>>738787594You can't
>>738791714it wasnt meant to look realistic proportion, 1st game looks even more uncanny
>>738791673Subnautica was also in early access for a long time, it was pretty much the community (unpaid beta testers) who made the game what it isI doubt anyone cares enough about this one though, no one cares about below zero
>>738785127>printSo you play a clone?
>>738791910yeah it gets pretty gnarly. I wonder if they will take it as far as made in abyss and imply some type of cannibalism based on printing new bodies.
>>738791673>anti-corpo corporation fires employees for holding opinions and hopes they starveMaybe redditors shouldn't support this kind of thing.
>>738785127Get that nigger printing press going you son of a bitch!
>devs say the leak is an early development buildnot sure if bluffing or not. I bought it anyway, cause it's good. the disappointment of below zero (too much land shit) is gone.
>>738792009Are you retarded? It's a fucking PG no-guns game. There's no LE SECRET HORROR
>>738792080Out of the printing press and straight into the bioreactor.
>>738792009Why would you eat printed humans and not what they're printed out of?
my 2c >story focusing on a virus again makes it feel like a rehash even though its doing a lot of new and interesting-on-paper stuff with the plot>frequency of audio logs undermines the atmosphere>core mechanics from 1 are improved across the board, base building especially is way better>gene editing is a neat addition to the formula>early game is over way too fast>water and food meters are still just chores the game doesnt need>1 spooked me occasionally, nothing in 2 has even made me blink twice
>>738792381Unpleasant texture. Like eating runny eggs.
>>738792046But that's the most Reddit thing I can think of
>>738788204>bioluminescense>in shallow waterwhat a waste of evolution points
>>738792530One more thing is i hate how much progression is just Hal 9000 giving you waypoints to check out. The game's first story hook is you literally can't eat anything on the planet and like an hour later he just sends you to check out a beacon and then the PDA spoonfeeds that you're supposed to interact with the huge pink alien flower.
>steam min requirement is a 1660 6bI've gtx 1650, am I good bros?
>>738790236Thats a completely fair accessment and all, but I just choose to opt out of total nihilistic detachment because I think it's gay and also because the alternative of apeshit tribalism is for retards.Im going to now call you a faggot and move on knowing I have won this social exchange. >>738790982Meds>>738791019Got me there lol
>>738793157The answer is always pirate it and see for yourself.
>>738793157It's 1660 for 30fps @ 1080p. You're fucked.
>>738784704Honestly this. Sub zero was such dogshit it killed all interest in the series for me.2 could be the best game ever and i still wont play it because i simply dont give a fuck
>>738793249There's no reason for games to demand more than a 1650, especially when games that came out a decade ago look better than modern titles.
>>738793397What else do you expect from unrealslop?
>>738793430Game devs deserve unemployment
>>738791673>>entire game is a political statement on gun controlnot really, its more that a political statement on gun control has been shoehorned into the game as an in universe explanation as to why you can't fabricate guns.>>Fires their sound guy for having milquetoast political opinions on his private Twitterhonestly yeah it was a bit of a brash decision I think the subnautica game identity suffered alot from him being fired.>>Hamfisted anti-corpo message even though you owe your immediate and continued survival to the very same corpoI mean yeah, it's kind of played for laughs with the whole one trillion credits owed thing i thought it was comedic in a dystopic way.>>Muttoid protagonistgod forbid you play a character you can't look at and immediately think "he's literally me!." holy fucking fuck its crazy I can't believe they're planting subliminal race mixing propaganda in our comfy alien survival game those fucking fuckers!>>Proceed to sell out with their not-sequelyeah BZ was shit>>Double down on progressive messaging and mutt creaturesyeah it was a bit much, i genuinely don't know why they felt the need to make the PDA voice indian.>Focus on several obnoxious characters that won't shut the fuck upyeah fair
>>738793568raped.
>>738787258Me too.
>>738784572Is protagonist silent? If so, I'm willing to give it a chance.
>>738793917Have you even played below zero?
>>738791673>Try to commit fraudThat was the publisher doe
>>738792530your points are correlate to mine, but i think the reason they made somehow similar to the first but improved because how flopped below zero was, as in below zero was meant to be to try something new but failed. So they revert to how their first game's success and replicate that. Tho i appreciate that motive, the force loredump for someone who dgaf about the story even om early access content is infuriating
>>738793917Yes, as for now throughout from early access content
>>738793186did you know: you can recognize common behavior without thinking it's goodyou can continue denying reality and just hopelessly expect better of people, but it will only make you angry while I am unbothered
>Early access>Israel Engine 5>Somehow blows 99.99% of other unreal sloppa 5 games out the water (haha) in terms of performance, worked fine for me out of the tinHow did they do it?
Can water/food/power be turned off?
>>738794086if they already perfected the 1st game, the 2nd one is a walk in a park if both uses the same engine
What's the download link?
>>738794198The first game was unity, actually, I don't think ue5 even existed when it first came out, might be wrong though
>>738794313oh yeah, welp my bad. Again my 5 hours playtime had no issue with performance, but stuttering happened so rare i barely notice. I would it comes close to the 1st game in terms of performance but yeah 1st game with unity engine had better results
>>738788204>darkness with bright lights>no hdr dun goofed
>>738794414lol no the first game had no draw distance and it makes everything worse
>>738789910The first game ends with you with a trillion dollar dept.
>> Get off the internet Rajesh. Don’t you have cow piss and shit to go worship? Poor ass motherfucker>>738793397>>738793397
>>738794469i dont know what that means desu.
Anyways, are grav traps in the game? Or some other method of catching fish that doesn't involve chasing them around like a retard
>>738794086only if you play on low settings.epic settings using lumen runs like total ass, high settings is a little better still not great for the graphics on display. looks like a ps4 game.1440p DLAA epic on a 4080 = 50fps. 1440p DLSS quality high = 90fps.
>738794694lol we broke the shill
>>738794861unfortunately on my playthrough, there's no better tool to catch fish other than chasing like a goose
>Altera canonically fucking prints niggersIs this some advanced bioweapons division testing or something?

>>738794806maybe look it up instead of staying retarded. Hell the name alone should let you at least guess.
>>738785737So that tadpole is modular. Better than I expected.
>>738787737Be honest with me, if I dumped you with an entire collage of nothing but that dialogue talking your ear off all the time would you even bother to read it?

>>738795013and to what benefits for me to look up nerd shit for a game i played once and paid nothing for it?
>>738795060I guessed as much when it looked like the prawn suit with no limbs. Better than the seamoth becoming useless when you have to go to lava world in the first game at least.
>>738795150you could also benefit from learning english while you're at it
>>738795268right, so nothing then. Good day
No dedicated servers, no care.
>Got into an underwater current and almost dragged into complete blackness Oh yeah we're so fucking back
>>738785127>
>>738794861water fish are only on the ground now, and you need to eat much less. Grav trap is obsolete.
>>738795149So what really happened, anon?
>>738795626White people who go outside, yes. Not albino vampires that never see the sun like british "people"
>>738785737>200mcrazy how i spent like 4 hours exploring the caves, basing, finding points of interest and the battery charger blueprints, and I've yet to go below 60m
>>738795626>>738795771If you look at the trailer he's obviously asian but with an unclear heritage.He's not white.If you take everyone from northern Europe (Brit, German, Scandi, Slav), you'll find they don't tan. Some Brits actually tan because of the pre-Saxon genetic stock of the southwest but definitely not the redheads of the north.
>>738794971>anon when seeing a white character:>I can't relate! Whites are boooring!Why do you think me rightfully poking fun of someone for being triggered at a video game because the player character is racially ambiguous means I hate white characters? Do you not think thats a bit of a leap in logic?
Ok, guess I'll play it in 24 hours since, of course, everybody's in on the dolphin porn except me and so there's no links to be found, I'm not cool enough to be part of the super special dolphin porn club. I just have to go trawling old threads to find it and I refuse to go through that tedious process.I'll make another thread when that happens and the game actually releases, thanks for nothing I guess.
>>738795994>>738732123
>>738795626Here's a more honest comparison. The darkies are not that dark but it's noticeable.
People crying about the game having multiplayer with the dumb argument that it's missing the point missing the point of are the same ones who cried because they wanted guns in 1 which would have also missed the point of the game.
>>738795845If the first game taught me anything it's that combing the shallows just wastes a of time, all the good shit is found going as deep as you can as soon as you can.

>>738796242well i get really high and play this game so i take longer but commit every area and my paths through them to memory. Most of my time was just exploring or finding the best mineral spots.
>>738785127why no asian male? i DEMAND justice

>>738787737incels are the most emotionally fragile cohort on the internet. are you really shocked 3 words causes them to have a meltdown?
>>738787737Did you not read the words the anon said and focused entirely on the image which is indicative of more than just the single piece of dialogue the anon showed? Disingenuous retards like you are the reason this shit perpetuates.
>>738789778I started reading your post in Obamas voice when I read "let me be clear".... Are you avatarfagging as Obama?
Any of the new Tools fun? I'm assuming the Stasis Rifle is still out?
>>738796540Not one of the big fishes, but I love this octopus nigga that makes weird as fuck noises.I hope there's weird shit like this in subnautica 2.https://youtu.be/JagKOhbKMTs

>>738797040the builder tool has improved a lot, can finally move things instead of having to break them down and building isn't as static as it used to be, I guess the repulsion gun is kinda cool but it feels very niche, I was expecting to be able to use it to push enemies away or something. The highlight in terms of tools for me, if you wanna call them that, are the biomods. They put the pathfinding tool on an ability as well as a dash and then there's also passive ones like being able to hold your breath longer if you're standing still and I think one that made you swim faster close to the floor or something, I kinda ignored that one so I don't remember what it was. Aside from that mostly everything is the same for tools. so far at least.
>>738797113Based dook appreciator.
>>738787737>JUST IGNORE IT CHUDCute how you think this is ever going to work.
I'm downloading the game. This thread convinced me. I hope to be spooked.
Are there going to be sexy fish in this one
where all da alien womenz at??
What the FUCK is a celestine and where do I find it?
>>738784639>OP pic literaly says Early Access>waah waah marketing i didnt know it was early access because im retarded waah waah
Where the fuck do I get silver at
>>738787737No.
>>738798128if you got the anita waypoint, it's kinda past that, there's a current that leads to an abandoned habitat and there's silver nearby in one of the caves
>>738798128look for a cave near one of the distress signal sites, if it has flowers it's probably that one
>>738785127Is that really all you can pick from? All four of them suck guess I’ll be the Asain girl.
>>738787737Foolishly bold writing like this ignores the fantasy world you are suppose to immerse yourself in, and all it requires is a sample of subliminal "humour" that takes you out of it. There is a reason games with political bias about non-existent problems end up flatlining. It doesn't age well, and it jabs at the player with a self-insert fantasy about the real world.You can choose to ignore the message, like you can choose to ignore that you are playing a black samurai, but that just means you are not listening, and you are blindly funding those who wish ill will upon your livelihood. If you pirated this game then nevermind my short essay.
>>738798128Go towards the tree
>>738784639Because it makes it seem more exclusive and attractive. You're meant to get the feeling that other people are in on something that you're not.
>>738795946Damn anon, I didn't know you didn't want to play as a white that hard.
>>738798305>>738798331>>738798380Thank you lads
>>738798347The first game had plenty of that and it certainly didn't flatline. All that matters is if it's entertaining, this example just comes off as lazy and trying too hard.
>>738794885I was really hoping I could rawdog this with DLAA at 1080p on my 4070ti superI really don't want ghosting in a fucking underwater game

>>738784618First post, I'd have to agree post. Writing is SUB ZERO ASS. FUCKING ASS. Check back later for gameplay. Looks like more of 1 so far. No innovations worth giving a fuck about.>>738785127Look closer. He's as white as Teo from Concord. >>738784639>he doesn't know.>>738796623Skill issue.
>>738785127Isn't this game locked to first person?
>>738799570its for coop purposes
>>738796932> Did you not read the words the anon said and focused entirely on the image I read them alongside the image and inferred the reason why anon feels like he never wants to play anything made by the devs of subnautica is because he felt so personally attacked and betrayed by the design choices they made like having you playing as a woman or the generally poorly written cringe reddit-millenial virtue signalling dialogue that he decided to boycott the entire studio and any future games they make. I ignored the less controversial problems with the game like the poor map/level design and the excessive annoying dialogue because those were never what it was really about otherwise he wouldnt’ve posted the image he chose to post.Everything I wrote was in earnest and completely genuine.>>738797012yes>>738798546very true
WHERE IS THIS FUCKING NECROLEI CYST FOR POWER CELLS
>>738784572>So, what is the /v/erdict?It's not complete dogshit like BZ. It's not kino of the highest order like Subnautica. It looks pretty. It runs well. It's nowhere near finished which makes me wonder where all the money went up until now. There's a small chance in 4 years it's a decent sidegrade to subnautica but it could never be an upgrade.
i think looting in this game is way too fucking split you need to walk a ton only to loot some shit
>>738800028Next to the main colonist base. Not the side of where the second base is, but the other side.
>>738784572How early is the early access? What is the game lacking?Also is there an ETA on a full release?
>>738785528I heard two "italian americans with grandparents from sicily" argue they were whiter than catalans the other day on discord
>>738800000checked
this game is slow paced compared to subnautica 1, or am i crazy?

bros... who is mr goldberg?
>>738798842I can test 1080p. To be fair it's the ""epic"" settings that is tanking framerate, the high settings seem fine although lumen looks kinda shit. Looks very blotchy and has that lag that stalker 2 has where you turn on/off a light and it takes the scene a couple seconds to adjust.
>>738800167it has some good stuff and i do think the planet is actually pretty good looking i think most of the budget went to the planet atmosphere
>>738785127>whiteok, ogro de las americas
>>738800764not white, but hapa
>>738800667>has that lag that stalker 2 has where you turn on/off a light and it takes the scene a couple seconds to adjust.I'd rather just have an option to cuck lumen and have my raytracing done by my card directly at that pointWas expecting to run this game on high for the most part
I kept up with the troubled development and the lawsuits and whatnot just to get this piece of shit?Fanfuckingtastic
>>738800926Tell us, shitposter-kun! What do you not like about the game?
>>738800926You were expecting good shit after Below Zero?
>>738800580the quints speak true
>>738800390>How early is the early access?Very.>What is the game lacking?Most of it.>Also is there an ETA on a full release?4 years or so.
>>738801249>Most of it.You're telling me this is just a small amount of what's gonna be in the full game? Holy shitI'm pretty sure this game is gonna be GOTY in the year it comes out if that's the case
>>738801249>>738801437I heard one guy say the environments are diverse but I heard another (very mindbroken) guy say there are 2 biomes, hows the situation in that regard.
>>738801739yeah i think mostly its like 2 biomes but its very diverse for 2 biomes
>>738801739>hows the situation in that regard.I've seen like 7 different biomes so far. Many more if you count smaller areas surrounding specific things.
>>738801739there are 2, three biomes if you consider the heat area. at least up to 250m depth.
>>738801739The way the devs are defining biomes is weird. They say that each biome can have multiple different regions. It's unclear right now if those regions are distinct from each other or not. So when they say they only have 2 biomes we don't know how many regions that is
>>738801782It's closer to 3 biomes, 4 if you're being REALLY nice. The starting shallow area, the hot area, the alien power plant, the "toxic" area not too far from the alien power plant
>>738796271what a handsome young 16 year old
>>738801739There aren't biomes at all like the first game has which is why everyone gives you different numbers. I'd argue theres 2 biomes currently.
fixes to improve the game for me :hate how you cant pick shit up in this game, regarding the abandoned bases, you can only scan and i think thats pretty uncool, most of the places in subnautica 1 were mostly interactive, you could pick up shit and stuff, now you can only scan, and the fragments dont even disappear, which is quite confusing, they should remove fragments as soon as you scan then at least in singleplayer, this game is pretty clearly so far way less interactive than the first one
>>738801894You're forgetting the jelly biome, the abyss and the lava zone.
>>738801951like, why the fuck cant you pick up the posters? fucking hell. most of the random shit you need to scan 2-3 times which is not cool, needs to be one single scan
>>738802083>why the fuck cant you pick up the posters?Because you can make an infinite number of them now? You only have to scan them once.I agree with the clutter being missing though, I would love having random bullshit to decorate my base with.
>>738786046>>738786109What the fuck? This game should be easy as fuck to optimize considering you can't see 10 feet in front of you underwater. I was hoping to play this in VR but you need like 4k 90 fps.
>>738802167It's a UE engine game now, it was bound to run poorly.
>>738802167It's made with UE, anon. Of course it's gonna be unoptimized. That's the entire draw of the engine.
>>738785127>White male character is gayWho wants to bet 100 bucks?
>>738801951you cant harvest shit for seeds either, most of the stuffs are not that interactable, i think the game has potential, but took them 7 years, come on...
Fuck my chud life
>>738802279>i think the game has potential, but took them 7 years, come on...And people wonder why Krafton was done with their shit
>>738802226>>738802242Wrong and fuck you, and fuck these devs. I've played plenty of UE games in 4k.
>PC not good enough to play itWell, we've reached this point, then.
>>738802408>I've played plenty of UE games in 4k.And how blurry was the screen when you moved your camera?
>>738802167To be fair, with the first game they didn't optimize until near the end of EA as well pretty sure.
>>738802480subnautica 1 is not optimized that well, its an older game, but it does not run that well for a 2014 game
>>738802279What happened to the studio. Foid and jeets replaced the original devs?
>>738802467I play in VR. My camera is moving 24/7

>>738802408There are more that run like shit over ones that run well. You can say it's dev laziness and i'd agree. You can literally go to Subnautica2>Content>Macros and there's just a bunch of text files with console commands in there.
>>738800247uhhh thats pretty the same thing as entire franchise
>>738797430I was so scared of these, fuck spiders.
>>738800583yes you are crazy, at least if you meant the movement speed is slower than the first game, you are probably right.
>>738802724Latino isn't a racial group. It's a bulk categorization for mixed individuals from African, European, and Asian stock who all just happen to speak Spanish.
>>738796373>caring about coop at alllmaooo
Just treat it like a demo and move on until it's done one day. Not like you actually paid for an unfnished game, right?
>>738784572Too much dialogue in the trailer. They don't understand Subnautica.
>>738802852what should you call a person of indigenous mexican descent, born in america, living there as an american citizen?
>>738802954yeah they need to tone it down a ton. if people complain about it, i doubt they will, so whatever
>>738784572Saw some ugly vtuber handing out "keys" if you act like a good little sheep and comment on her shit. This is all I need to know to pirate this shit instead once its out
>>738802941thats the problem, they dont play videogames. At least to me the game is ok, not buggy mess, expected to be an early access content, fulfilling gameplay and mechanic that ties up to the first game unlike BZ. Everything else from the day of early access release until more years to come will be more content, polishing and end game story, just like the first game.
>>738791448my favorite cope is still how the faggots force us to play some foid because "hurr story"... which still hasnt been released.
>>738794558ok and who invented usury?
>>738803687just go full blown pirate anon, there's no need to have buyers remorse until you feel the NEED to buy the game for the sake of supporting the devs
>>738797113these seriously made me chicken out of completing the first gamehearing those sounds while in the blood kelp/deep grand reef was just too much
>>738803857>stopped buying games on release>Slay the spire turned out to support some facist whore 3 months after releaseYeah at this point buying a game is just a huge mistake. Better wait for a year in case any dirt comes up and then get them either cheap or just pirate them all.
>>738802803>spiders>it's a crabsquid
>>738787737This is /v/, anons here have nothing going on in there life so they think videogame dialogue is a really big deal.
>>738803625nah, ww just make amass of complaints once it out or just demand having a mute voiceline settings asap.
>>738785787That's from Grounded
>>738785127>he calls this whiteWhite race erasure is truly happening
>>738787737If they cared enough to put it in, I'm allowed to care enough by hating it
>>738804028you're right, he's actually black
>>738803965Slay the spire is a another case of lightning in a bottle like HK to Silksong sequel. Their success is so outstanding that portion of pirates pirating their game will never hurt their sales at all.
>>738789910Maybe you should actually play video games before shitposting about them.
>>738803528An Aztec probablyBeing an indigenous Mexican with no Spanish in you would be pretty hard
>>738784572Not giving my money to leftist idiots
>>738803965With these devs you already know they are insane so the best scenario will be that it comes close to subnautica 1. Ill wait for 1.0 though
>>738789910The megacorp you work for literally tells you to make your own rocket. Nothing about Subnautica suggests it's some kind of utopia.
Where the fuck do I find creature enamel for the depth module?
>>738789910The moment you escape the planet in the first game you get a bill for all the materials you used, because the mineral rights belonged to alterra.
>>738795913>you'll find they don't tan...holy retard...
>>738785127watch them get mad because people won't pick the black ones
>>738804664Didnt the directory do fuck all and are creating some AI christmas movie or something?
Does the Tadpole have any upgrades yet?
>>738784572Is it still on 4546b?
>>738784572Where the fuck did you get the game from?
>>738804940Gill was the only one really involved with development, it wasn't much of a secret they didn't have interest in it either. They stayed on Krafton'd payroll because those were the terms of the buyout. It's also why the judge only reinstated Gill after the lawlsuit, they probably didn't want to come back anyway.
>>738804795In the ayylmao biome where the needler sharks are. It looks like a grey blob with white spikes.
How do these games compare to Planet Crafter?
>>738805101No, new planet.
How's the story so far?
>>738805368Soma at home.
>>738805276Subnautica 1 is a bit deeper than planet crafter but similar in a lot of regards.
>>738789778>Tranny melty
>>738798347whatever happened to this artist anyway?
>>738802936friendless loser lmao
Someone go ask the devs why we dont have actual white or asian characters to chose from
>>738805575They make shitpost cartoons on youtube under sillypoo now. Decent but too female brained for me to really find funny.
>>738784704>>738785127HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>738804960Depth, energy efficiency, and durability. Then there's the speed and truck chassis that attaches, not sure if the mech chassis is in the game yet. How the fuck do I get passed the squid, I got through it to the next area but I detached from my tadpole wings like an idiot thinking the squid would let go of me or grab them instead, is there lithium in this area?
Did they get a good AI/PDA voice this time? I liked the one from the first game but the below zero one sucked ass
>>738804810When you say tan, you're saying they'll turn into brown-to-vanta-black Indians or Nigerians.When you look at a Brit, Germ or Ukrainian, you'll find he burns instead of tans.I'm sorry if this realisation that you're not built for a northern climate is hitting you hard. It's okay to be Greek anon, you get backhair and African style sickle cell when you're cold... wait, those aren't good things.
Can you have multiple oxygen tanks like in the last game or does it not work because of the inventory changes? I wanna try it but I don't wanna waste supplies lol
>>738805770>How the fuck do I get passed the squidPlay hide and seek with it. There are nooks on the seafloor where your tadpole can hide. It will loose interest eventually.
I liek it. Most of the issues people think the game has aren't even present in this game. There is literally a torrent for it. Just download it and play it.
Anyone got the leaked game here????
>>738806534check the archives for the magnet linkyou can do that, right, newfag-kun?
>>738784572i want to play it so bad
>>738806753what's stopping y ou
>>738806821Money and also retardness
I'm waiting until tomorrow. I'm sure it's going to be one of those things where the anticipation is better than the thing itself.
>>738785127I'll take the hot asian chick thank you
>>738806998you literally have a leak up on torrent sites you can pay for free
>>738806998Download through ankergames, have fun.>>738807148
>>738807227well shit i guess its just retardness now
>>738805276Subnautica is more of a story/experience than PC. PC is fun but it's just a dumbed down factorio/satisfactory. I don't mean that as an insult either I have played a lot more PC than satisfactory.
>>738805831I thought it was funny as fuck that the canonically bootleg alterra PDA was voiced by a fucking jeet but I still downloaded a mod to change it because it's hard as fuck to understand it and the captions didn't match up
i'd rather nail my dick to a board than play this woke trash
>>738805831Subnautica A+, BZ F, Sub2 C.I miss >Welcome aboard, Captainlike you wouldn't fucking believe.
>>738807412It was actually just a different voice option from the same text-to-voice software they used for the first game.
>>738805272Ohhh I see, it looks kinda like big stalker teeth stuck in a rock, that makes sense now. I should have known.
>>738784572It's running surprisingly well on my RTX 3060TI. I've been playing for 30 minutes. So far it looks like a sequel to SN1 with some cringe writing. I will probably stop tho and wait till the full release.
>>738785127Picking your protagonist is quite possibly the least important thing in Subnautica. Who the fuck even cares who you are, you're wearing a wetsuit, it's first person, and if you have any lines of dialog other than pained grunts the game is fucking up just like Below Zero.
i'm only like 10 minutes into the actual game but enjoying it so far. i injured my right arm from my elbow to my forefinger/middle finger that makes using a mouse difficult. something about my tendon must be injured and i haven't done rehab for it.but i'm able to play a relaxed and atmospheric game like this with a controller which is awesome. i miss being able to play games like this
>>738807662>Who the fuck even cares who you are, you're wearing a wetsuit, it's first personYou're supposed to play with friends and lock in which mutt most represents you before your friend does
>>738808104>Playing subnautica with other peopleYeah no I won't be doing that in my first run lol. Go on and ruin your experience.
wtf is the 10 in the bioreactor?10 minutes? !0 charges?
>>738808569I'm notBy not playing it
>>738796901Projecting a bit there, aren't you troony?
What in the goddamn is a conduit crystal, get these fucking aliens off my planet
>>738796901Everyone who dislikes those three words are incels?
Anyone figured out how to make windows on room corners? I assume it's possible somehow considering the prebuilt structures have them. I found a round room blueprint which has a curved window, but it's a set size
I'm not gonna waste space for the torrent. Any comfy people to watch to get a first impression? I have no hopes for the game
Do you guys have access? Why are people posting like the game is out?Post some new fish
>>738784572is the OST still shit like in BZ
So is the game actually done? Steam still says> Coming Soon To Early AccessIs the leak just like the very first early access version? Is it a buggy incomplete mess? Does it feel complete? What are we dealing with here?
>>738787118I cannot support this in goodwill when they only have one vehicle with the promise of maaaybe a sub like 5 years down the line now that Krafton is not breathing down their necks anymore.
>>738810498If you don't know how to get it then just wait a day.
>>738810893It's EA, I'm just trying it out to see how it's coming together. I'm just not playing EA, I'll wait as many years as I have to play the full release.
>>738810893The leaked version is an earlier dev version than the actual EA

>Compiling shaders
I'm 4 hours in so not really that much but I have some thoughts-The feeling of being lost in the deep ocean is still there and done very well, if you liked looking at the bottomless darkness and getting a shiver down your spine you'll enjoy it here too.In fact the first stance of this happens under a minute after you boot the game, which in a way I found it kind of a bad idea because it kills the element of dread when you're exploring after learning more of the game and realize that you NEED to go down the darkness in order to progress -I hate what they did to the story. Your magical technology robot will recreate a copy of you whenever you die, in fact one of his first orders is for you to go off and kill yourself so he can test this.I think this is dumb because it severely cuts down on the fear of exploring..Obviously in the first game you also just revived yourself if you died but without the excuse attached to it. But from an immersion perceptive, it removes the anxiety of going to places you shouldn’t be. Like yeah sure I'll go down this dark cave with half my o2, I'm just body 7 out of a billion so who cares. I get if you just call this autism but it bothered me.-Base building is cool-Crafting from nearby inventories is great-The new perks stuff and inventory upgrade is cool and makes gameplay more smooth but feels like I'm playing another game altogetherThat's all thanks for reading my autist dump
>>738810414Have you messed with verticality yet? Do you have to build ladders between levels or can we make two-storey+ rooms with stairs now?
>>738812471Thanks for the info.All sounds good so far except the inconsequential death part which sounds gay but I guess I gotta remember that not everyone plays Noita.
>>738812471That death thing seems weird. Just being able to 3d print a new body seems like it would detract from the pressure to survive deep down
>>738813203There wasn't much pressure in the other games to begin with, losing your loot and stranding your vehicle was the only incentive to not just an hero back to base.
>>738810723its better but still shit
>>738813273oh... I played subnautica on hardcore
Spoopy...
Does this one also starts to feel like you're no longer underwater the deeper you go?
Does the game have an HDR mode?
>>738784572I didn't care for the first one

>>738796540Reaper looks dopey as fuck, why does it have a weird man face? The grabbers are cool, but the face makes no sense, isn't scary and detracts from it. Chelicerate is literally the only worthwhile design from BZ, even more so than the Ice worm which sucks since it doesn't show up in water. Void Chelicerate especially so. It's a massive crustacean/lobster shark, the void version is the only leviathan in that game can is even remotely scary. Shadow Leviathan sucks since it's scary bits is underneath it, which means that the ideal attack/surprise angle is from above, which fucking sucks conceptually in a Thalassophobia/Megalophobia game.
>>738810723Below zero's OST is great actually. Ben Prunty is a great composer.It's the rest of the audio that's crap, like creature and environment sounds.
>>738818356below zero ost is okay, the first one is way better, in my opinion
bros where tf is silver
>>738819526had to use scanner to find this shit, very confusing map on this game.
