- Subnautica is an excellent exploration/survival game where you spend a lot of the time traveling and completing objectives in vehicles. But what if we took those vehicles away?

Trying out something a little different. This video was a long time in the works but I figured now was the best time to finally finish it up. Oh, and go play Subnautica if you haven't.
EphiTV go mate
This game is so fun and terrifying, i love it! Picked it up recently, so you have to get stabbed by the weird alien thingy to progress in the story?
@@man_like_forg1121 sorry for the super late reply, didn't see this. Yeah you do have to get "tested" by the machine to advance.
@@EphiTV im up to taking my cyclops to the lost river now, even though i did get tested any way, i still appreciate you trying to help thankyou! :)
Isn’t the rocket a vehicle
Pressurized, space-age metal vehicle: "You went too far down, and now I'm crumpling like a tin can!"
Your squishy body: "If I had a long enough snorkel, I'd be perfectly fine!"
Well assuming "infinite" or at least very high air pressure in your tanks, our body would be fine at extreme depths. The reason vehicles crash is because the air pressure inside is not high enough to withstand the water pressure. Our body is mainly water, not air and since water cant be compressed, the outside pressure doesnt matter. The air in the tank needs to be a at high pressure or they would not be able to inflate our lungs anymore.
TL;DR our squishy body can indeed handle crazy (under)water pressures.
@@theknight1573 our bones can handle crazy pressures, but our organs would likely squish still
@@onionenthusiast9832 you might have a point there
@@theknight1573 dem. useless squishy organ REPLACE THEM WITH STRONK TITONIUM
The freediving (no tank) world record is 214 meters. The deepest dive with SCUBA gear is 332 meters. That doesn't take into account decompression sickness during ascent or other health problems. So without a special suit or futuristic equipment the diving in Subnautica is wildly inaccurate.
He use the rocket to leave the island so technically he lost but I applaud you
It’s not an island it’s a planet
Lol
Well technically to the standing of the game, the rocket just sits on the platform while it spawns in a cutscene. So technically, he did win if you say that the vehicle must move
@@reececampbell486 even then, they needed to make a cyclops to make the rocket
I had the same thought
Welcome to "how to drown!"
Before i knew the rebreather was a thing i almost blew up my seamoth by getting it closer to the degasi base for air and now i feel dumb
“You have enter non living welcome to hell” wait no Riley is already there it’s call planet 4546B
"How to drown 2!" should be exploring large wrecks with one oxygen tank (I actually always use one). I'm serious those things are like little mazes for kids except you have to grab stuff and leave in 3-4 minutes and if you lose orientation you're dead.

Pro tip: fill lungs with water
This video in a nutshell:
“And I drowned”
Would have drowned less if he had an Ultra High Capacity Tank which gives you 225 oxygen instead of 135 oxygen.
@@romangunter621 But would it have slowed him down too much to compensate?
He wasn’t speed running it so he could’ve gotten the modification station and made the ultra tank
@@FreemanicParacusia It doesn’t slow you down at all if you’re using the sea glide. I’ve played this game a lot, and it’s way better to have the ultra high capacity tank. In fact, I carry 2 (TWO), one I’m using and one as a backup (always check to make sure they’re both filled before descending).
It helps that I’m actually a scuba diver in real life
Seaglide isn't a vehicle, its like saying a skateboard is a vehicle.
That's why I used it. Also the run would be super tedious without it.
@@EphiTV Doable. Absolutely. But.... We haven't gone that far insane yet...
Baby with a gun In the Fabricator UI the Seaglide is in Deployable tab
Technically... by its definition... a skateboard can be considered a vehicle
yeah the seaglide is more like a tool
"Can you beat subnautica with no vehicles"
Me : *laughs in speedrun*
I mean you would need the cyclops to build the ship. Thats assuming you don't count the ship as a vehicle.
wait... you're telling me shield generator can only be obtained by crafting in cyclops? Was it a bug or something when I found it in some large wreck?
@@lordprecel8323 you're supposed to only be able to build it in a cyclops, but I think its possible to find it in a time capsule. You shouldn't be able to find it in a shipwreck

He actually didn’t have to move the prawn suit! There are several other ion cube caches around the map that you can go to
I think he made the suit so that he could just get the cubes quickly so that he could get the video done in time.
That's what I did in my run without vehicles, as for the shield generator, I built a cyclops, got the generator, and destroyed the cyclops, I think not using the cyclops other than to make that is fine. The prawn suit was a fail for this run imo
@@aneeveewhohasinternet1871 I just didn’t activate any portals. That saves you a ton of cubes.
I'm pretty sure he does not know that you can put the thermal reactors not on your base and I will still generate power as long as it has a line to it so he probably does not know that there more than one precursor cache
@@dawnsharp3963 Those two things aren’t really related, so I’m not sure what your point is.
It’s crazy how leviathans are just not a problem anymore when you don’t use vehicles.
You know, come to think of it, Leviathans just aren’t really problems. I’ve been grabbed by reapers in my sea moth a ton of times, but I always get away. I can count on one hand how many times my sea moth has died. Or, like, my cyclops has been attacked a ton, but the only time I lost it was when I drove it out into the void.

1:22 bro that gaspod in the background
XDDDDDD
LMAO
I appreciate you pointing that out
He *ZOOMIN*
bro he did a flip 😂
I did this, too.
Here are my tips from the current version:
・If you're OK with taking advantage of glitches, utilize 'Super Seaglide'. Speedrunners access this by flooding a normal compartment; it's slower but easier to do it by flooding a Moonpool. Build the Moonpool away from any other structures, power it, then add windows until you start to get cracks. Once you see the water level inside rising, you can take away the windows as long as you don't repair the cracks. Powering it keeps a small pocket of air at the ceiling. To use, swim up into it, top off your air by bobbing against the ceiling, and then exit down and out using the Seaglide - you'll be going super fast! Powered interior fixtures like Fabricators and Battery Chargers will work fine, and you can even grow surface plants in the flooded space. Super Seaglide will remain active until you breach the surface or enter a habitat; swimming carefully to a depth of 0 meters will get you surface air.
・To get air where you want it without building a hab, plant Brain Coral in Exterior Planters (get plans from the Floating Island, or from in wrecks). To dive deep, I made a chain of planters with Brain Coral and Creepvine Seeds. When the Creepvine is fully grown, it shines out in yellow light visible at a distance. This saved me from having to memorize routes or build tons of beacons - I just swim towards the light. Stacking multiple Brain Coral will let you refill your tanks faster; multiple Creepvines makes more distinct light. Of course, you don't need to carry all that at once - 2 Titanium to build the planter, one of each plant to seed it, then do other things while they grow. Go back later and replant cuttings from the adult flora to fill it out. If you're using Super Seaglide, this has the added benefit of letting you refill air without dropping speed.
・You can also plant Gel Pods or Bulb Bushes for exterior food and water. For Gel Pods, plant an adult one, cut it once for a seed, then take the adult back into your inventory. When you pick up the adult, it restores to full 'health', so you can cut it as many times as you need by repeating this process.
・The Seaglide has a constant speed, no matter what you're carrying. Ordinarily, tugging extra O₂ tanks slows you down incrementally - but not while the Seaglide is active. If you know you're going to some... structure... where there is air, you can make an extra long trip by bringing a spare O₂ tank and switching it out while swimming. Just remember to switch between tanks once you make it to the air - the used one will not refill if it is not equipped. Swim Charge Fins will also recharge a Seaglide while you're using it, with no loss of speed...until you switch to another tool, that is.
・The Lost River is the deepest region where you'll find plenty of Limestone for Titanium; there is a little loose in the Inactive Lava Zone, but starting at the Ghost Tree it's almost all in drillable form. I love building up a base next to the Ghost Tree: It's pretty, there are no predators, and it's got Limestone, Sandstone, and Shale. If you like that spot, too, plop a Thermal plant right at the apex of a hydrothermic pillar and use it to power a Scanner Room (with a Hatch) set to scan for Limestone. It saves on what you have to bring with you.
Inventory Use: 12 Ti + 2 Cu + 1 Au + 1 Coral + 2 Magnetite + 1 Aerogel + 1 Quartz + (optional 4 Scanner Range Mods) = 20/24, plus a build tool.
This deserves way more attention
Did Hardcore no vehicles, single airtank run year ago. Same method Brain coral+ creepvine planters daysichained into lava zone and through lost river. There are enough ioncubes on map without the need to drill it. Built only 2 bases, Starter and one in lost river junction before the tree.
I think having to build the Cyclops for its shield is an acceptable "yes, but no." Needing the prawn to drill however does break the run.
you don’t need it though
He could have got the remaining ion cubes from one of the caches...or just not used the teleporters as much.
Umm what is yout profile picture 0-0
@@Kylehappy305 phat dino ass.
He could just head to the sparse reef ion bank
Going to the lost river be like “boys get the pipes”
With the extra ion cubes at the sanctuaries, the Prawn was unnecessary, and I'm going to say that using the Cyclops as a big expensive fabricator doesn't count. :P
You could get a cyclops shield generator from a time capsule, so theoreticaly it should be possible.... But it would take ages.
Nope you can't it's an endgame item
pretty sure i got the sheild module at the wreck at pod 19, the fire supression thingy at the floating islands
There’s only a set amount of time capsules in a save and the chances of finding a shield module is probably low as most players would’ve used it to make their own rocket
@@imasheep590 Im pretty sure that they only show up in your first save after completing the game. But as soon as you complete it once, it can show up on subsequent saves. At least Im pretty sure that is how it works
@@imasheep590 i believe if yoy have the blueprint yoy can find it

I got yelled at a lot but never actually eaten.

i call them ramen, gotta look out for ramen
@Baby with a gun I thought about big floppa
@@EphiTV fun fact: The ghost leviathan doesn't actually eat animals, its just extremely territorial and instead survives off of microorganisms in the water
I love how the first vs subsequent playthroughs of the game are,
First playthrough: Frantically trying to find something you didn’t even know existed
Subsequent playthroughs: Breezing through the game with ease because you know where everything is
yup, its a great game to speedrun, although that first playthrough is magical and terrifying and only happens once.. makes me regret having the game spoiled just before i finished the story...
My answer before watching the video: very unlikely but probably possible
Its easy to beat it just use the superseaglide glitch
When you realise the rocket is technically a vehicle:
“The game was rigged from the start”
And you need the cyclops
You are better than some you tubers with 10 million subs I wish people could see your talent bro
All personal preference, but I appreciate it. Thanks!
I thought by no vehicle, homie is gonna fly out of the planet using floaters and return to planet
We need more utubers like you
uu
Probably the only game I actually take screenshots in, and I take a lot
Pretty sure you can find the cyclops shield gen in the game without having to craft it? Also Ion cubes could be spared by not activating teleporter. Still tho neptune rocket prevents a genuinly no vehicle run from being possible.
Nah you dont actually drive the Neptune it doesnt count
Yeah, I was playing the other day and found the shield gem, it was either in the degasi grand reef base or some general aurora wreckage.
@@bobjames994 You just found a databox for the bluepring in the degasi base. The Auror has an engine efficiency module in it but nothing else for the cyclops
You have to craft it
You could find it from a time capsule so it is actually possible, just needs good rng with getting a time capsule
Can we just appreciate this mans went 700+ METERS DOWN WITH A 135 OXYGEN TANK
Mobile vehicle bay makes vehicles, doesn’t make sea glide, therefore the sea glide is not a vehicle.
I mean, you can argue it's counted as a vehicle in the pda
@@ORCINUS it is based of it but it isn’t it.
This is the best way to explain a technicality!
@@ORCINUSbut this isn’t real life-
hope that's sarcasm
the seaglide IS a vehicle.
I love the part where you said “then I drowned.”
You might have been able to got to the grand read and get the cash instead of the prawn suit, but it’s fine you did what you thought you could
Mate you’ve got some true patience. I would’ve given up before even getting to the first island
Really liked this video. Think you did a great job with it
Thank you!
Agreed

Me Wondering why he forgot that its a very piss your pants game : hmmmm
I did this run before I even saw this video. I did a hardcore world, and didn't *pilot* a single vehicle (I say pilot, as it is necessary to *build* the cyclops and the rocket. I wouldn't really count launching the rocket as piloting a vehicle). I can testify, though, most of the time that I spent in the run was traveling back and forth, ferrying items from my main base to my relays positioned deep in the lost river and lava zone. Fortunately, I was able to get enough Ion cubes from facilities and caches to beat the game *and* make an ion battery for my seaglide. But other than those differences, it was pretty much the same as you saw in the video.
I did this a while ago, just as a personal challenge. Two things that made it WAY easier were super sea glide(a glitch that makes the seaglide much faster) and keeping 2 oxygen tanks on me, and swapping them out to double my air supply. I didn't die nearly as much or need so many bases everywhere for oxygen, it took about 10 hours iirc, but I wasn't going for maximum speed. Still though, good job, having done the run myself I know how tedious it is... Just so you know though, you don't need the prawn suit, there are more cubes around the map. And it sucks that you have to build a cyclops just for the fabricator...
The neptune rocket is a vehicle, therefore it is imposible to complete subnautica without using vehicles
You technically don’t drive it yourself tho. You activate it and then the endgame cutscene starts therefore, your argument is invalid.
@@zackerymoyano you can activate it
@@zackerymoyano the challenge isn't to complete the game without driving a vehicle, it's to complete the game without using a vehicle. That is sufficiently vague that we could all argue in a circle forever. Or we could just not.
The challenge is to complete the game without a vehicle,neptune is basically an expensive cutscene
@@the_spider_7773 spamster already explained it
I just completed my own no-vehicle run, my main takeaway was that vehicles hinder my progress more than helping it. The vehicles take so much time and effort to build and upgrade, if all you're trying to do is finish the game then I honestly will continue to do my runs without vehicles. I ended up building a few bases, I think 4. 1 as my main base in the blood kelp zone, 1 in the Lost River for scanning and obtaining nickel, and crystaline sulfur, 1 in the inactive lava zone, and one that I would pack up and take with me for scanning. all of these bases comprised of a multipurpose room, bioreactor, and scanner, as well as fabricators when needed and storage when needed.
all in all I found that the lack of vehicles shocked me with how little extra difficulty the run added. as long as you pack an extra o2 tank, the risk of drowning is honestly very low. just make sure you know where you are going or what you are going out to do before you set off.
I'm still pretty new to the game and wasn't really trying to do this as a speedrun and this was only my 4th run but it ended up being 7 hours and 45 minutes, by far my fastest run.
no, no i cannot. I'd be too afraid to get into the water without a exo made of metal for protection.
Have you ever killed the reaper without an vechicle? Cause I have and it's pretty fun
@@The-rq2og ye

Thanks! Took a long time to cook up but I'm glad it came out alright.
Benson Sexon goood jon
you can also use exterior grow beds and brain coral for air sources
You can also eat raw bladder fish to gain oxygen
a quick tip that could've helped; making multiple oxygen tanks and swapping them in your inventory when depleted refreshes your O2 meter
I only ever have 1 extra because I’ll never need more
This sounds like an awesome challenge! As a player who LOVES Subnautica and would say by this point, I’m really good at it and would say it’s one of the games I know+play best, this(and the no base run especially) sound like challenges I’d love to try. I think I’ve pretty much done no base runs before but I could be wrong and might have actually built some but to make sure I’ll still give it a try someday. Death run sounds fun (excruciating) too, like survival in Fallout 4, another favorite :))
They were all pretty interesting to do in their own ways. Wouldn't repeat most of 'em, but once through was a fun challenge.
I know that this video is an older one, but I just did a bit of a speed run last night. Went in through the Bulb zone with 2 High Cap/3 Regular tanks, Rebreather, Scanner, Fins, and 2 Purple Tabelets. Went all the way down into the Lava zone and into the Geothermal base. Got the Blue tablet and Ion technology.
Found a single Ion Cube, which I used to open the Teleporter into the big weapon base. Now I have a quick way into the Geothermal plant and can pick up Kyanite to build another Blue Tablet. Once that is done, I will get the Reinforced suit from the wreckage in the Bulb zone, get my tanks all together and go cure the disease.
Then I can play/explore, basically from the beginning, without having to deal with warpers.
legend because he only used the high capacity oxygen tank
"Annnd I drowned" was your most used phrase
Would have drowned less if he had an Ultra High Capacity Air Tank which gives you 225 oxygen instead of 135 oxygen.
Legend has it that the prawn suit is still down there, silently weeping.
SO FUN FACT ABOUT VEHICLE DEPTH LIMITS
The water that constitutes the majority of the human body isn't compressed by depth while you're diving like air is
What this means is that theoretically speaking with big enough supply of special gasses (oxygen is toxic at depth and the nitrogen in the air we breathe becomes narcotic) and enough exposure protection from the cold, there's actually no limit to what a person can physically dive to
Submarines on the other hand which are basically submerged pockets of air, are compressed by the water at depth; meaning you can only go so far with them before the hull starts to crack
I figured out how to solve the super long loading screen when starting a new game:
Initially I had my game installed on my HDD, just a normal hard drive disk. When I reinstalled it onto my M.2 NVME SSD, it loaded much much faster. If you guys have an SSD and Subnautica is not on there, I'd highly recommend it. It cuts down loading times very very significantly.
The first thing that came into my mind when I saw no vehicles in the title (unless you are doing a speedrun of the game that is and still take your time to explore and do stuff), was "man I'd built so many outdoor growbeds with braincorals so I wouldn't need a base every few hundred metres" and now that I'm done with the video I'm left wanting to try that myself since you didn't use any... (o.o )
"Did a little bit of handfishing"
* Gasopod going mach 2 through the water in the background *
I beat subnautica without using vehicles in my first playthrough. all you needed was materials for a hatch, multipurpose room, and a bioreactor. Every time i started running out of o2, id grab a fish, make a multipurpose room (including hatch and bioreactor) and throw the fish in the bioreactor, and boom, you refill the oygen
The shield generator can be found in a time capsule, and the ion cubes were lost in the death at the cuddlefish lab, totally possible.
You got a point, but being able to find a shield generator in a time capsule would be insanely lucky.
@@thedoomtrainer8292 I found 2 on my first run without even knowing what a time capsule is. I also wasn't looking for them, I was just vibing at the Aurora.
@@TPguard5 if he went to the different alien caches (idk if he did or not, he did the one in the lost river but idk about the others) he could’ve gotten enough Ion cubes
@@DMD-Wewae I know.
this was basically my experience. I didn't realize how handicapped I was making myself and I ended up getting far enough in the game that I fully scanned ghost and reaper leviathans as well as the blueprints for every vehicle in the game. I figured that all I really needed was the LifePod. after a while I discovered this seam off and I just had to stop playing for a bit out of frustration with myself lol
Honestly this video should have more views and you should have more subscribers. This is a quality video.
Except for the cyclops shield module, you could totally have done the entire game without vehicles!
If you wanted more ion cubes without mining them, you could go to all the sanctuaries too.
And I drowned.
Would have drowned less if he had an Ultra High Capacity Tank which gives you 225 oxygen instead of 135 oxygen.
I always wanted to try a Subnautica run without vehicles (except for the ending, of course). I was planning on using exterior growbeds with brain corals for oxygen and gel sacks for food; building them along the way. One day, maybe
This in a nutshell: Seamoth (and maybe prawn) is optional
prawn is very optional, there are pleanty more cubes around the map.
the seaglide is also optional if you choose to count it as a vehicle, it just makes the run a lot more tedious..
@@rev_dude you will easily drown without the prawn at the sea emperor place
You can build a base down there powered by thermal plants for oxygen
you can also carry multiple oxygen tanks to expand your range without needing to refill. I have personally beat subnutica with zero vehicle use (other than the cyclops as a crafting station) and every single competitive speedrun doesn't bother with the prawn, so I can tell you with absolute certainty that the prawn suit is optional.
Im not saying the prawn suit is not useful, just that it is not required to beat the game.
@@rev_dude Woah i forgot i made this comment and also what was i going on about??? Clearly i wasnt good enough at subnautica
A vehicle is defined as "a thing used for transporting people or goods, especially on land, such as a car, truck, or cart."
This means the lifepod is a vehicle. It transported you from the ship to the surface.
Seaglide also fits this definition. So both didn't work. But still, not much you could do. Good video!
How to make this a drinking game:
Take a drink each time he dies
I haven't finished the game, and can just started the video - I can already answer. Yes (IF #1 you can endure it, and #2 someone was nice enough to put a Cyc Shield Generator in a time capsule you come across)
Otherwise, no. You can't get everything you need w/o a Cyclops.
if you build an air-base every swim distance of about 1000m.
That includes vertical And horizontal, but not anything else that slows you down, like forced turns.
By the time you're making 10 stops for air along the way to the lower layers, knowing you'll need ot make 3+ trips to get enough there to build all you need (can't drill those nice titanium deposits w/o a prawn)... you'll need some theraputic medications to stay sane.
i wouldn't count the cyclops use, because the crafter is in basically in everything, so I wouldn't count it
In speedrunning, we technically complete the game without any vehicles. You don't need the prawn suit to finish the game. There are enough ion cubes in alien caches in the world to build multiple rockets. The cyclops however is necessary. That is true.

you can get more ion cubes from caches. but there's nothing to bypass getting the cyclops for sheild generator
Wait a second technically you can’t beat the game without using vehicles because the Neptune rocket would be considered a vehicle and that’s the only way to beat the game
So technically no you can’t beat the game without vehicles
I agree that the seaglide isn’t a vehicle, vehicles are what you make with the mobile vehicle bay. But The Neptune Escape Rocket IS a vehicle ;) Also we’ll say the prawn suit was a one time thing and the cyclops you didn’t even drive.
I’m fairly sure you could finish the game without a vehicle if you got extremely lucky with a time capsule
Great video,

Try beating subnatica without touching water 🤔
You could almost do it without leaving the water, except a few story points
Hackers:thats not a challenge
Use a mod.. there is no restrictions
I am typing this before I watch the video:
NO it is impossibe, why? You NEED the cyclops to get the shield upgrade for your rocket. (Wich is crafted in the cyclops)
Is everything else except for the upgrade? YES. This had been done multiple times by world record runners, because they use extra crafted oxy tanks in stead of vehicles.
Edit: he's going back and building bases all the time, but there is a possibility to reach the sea emperor with 3 tanks (2 spare).
Without looking at your sub count I would think you would have at least 100k subs, this is a really good video and I don’t know why you don’t have more subs
I think it mostly boils down to me not being great at spreading my videos around and also working on stuff that takes way too much time to post consistently. I appreciate it though!
When they added the Bulb Zone/Mountain entrance to the LR that honestly made the game a bit too easy. It made the Cyclops completely unnecessary as you could just make a base near the hole to the IA Lava Zone to dock your PRAWN (or just as a base in general in a no-vehicle run).
Did it without dying or prawn suit. :)
Proof?
@@isabelle2935 I didn't record it.
@@smawzyv9281 Oof ok
So, after thinking to myself, and reading a few comments, I've came to the conclusion that is possible to complete the game without crafting a single vehicle.
Fixing Issue #1 (Prawn Drill): I think you know how to handle this by now.
Fixing Issue #2 (Shield): Get incredibly lucky and obtain a time capsule with one inisde.
Nice!
It actually makes you numb to the terror of the creatures... like i was shit scared of the dragon leviathan whenever i was in a vehicle down in the active lava zone but now all i got is my seaglide and stasis rifle and im not even slightly scared of the guy anymore like its hilarious that these massivr leviathans go from the scariest thing to just another thing to get distracted from the main goal of beating the game again
the rocket is a vehicle
Top 10 anime plot twists
I sort of accidentally tried a little part of this my very first playthrough years ago. I had only the seaglide for the longest time, and only got the seamoth when I was going into Lost River, since my oxygen didn't last long enough to go far enough into it. I didn't get the prawn and cyclops until I was in the final two lava zones. I felt so silly once I finally had the prawn because those large nodes, especially of nickel and kyanite make everything so much easier.
The 26 ion cubes that spawn around the world are not enough...?

@@Splinter-ge9pf oh yeah
I mean technically the lifeboat and aurora are vehicles, so is the rocket
If you don't count those, it is possible but incredibly unlikely. For ion cubes, just either don't activate the teleporters or go to the supply caches. As for the cyclops shield module, it is technically possible to get without the vehicle if you find it in a time capsule. However, this would take a serious amount of luck to do. Still that would be interesting if that happened

Thinking to the end, i think you need a cyclops to make the cyclops shield generator for the rocket, but I’m excited to see how car you can go! Air shouldn’t be a problem: you can RepulsionCanon some Corals with you anywhere if you don’t mind swimming slowly
...then proceeds to drown several times. Man, how can you build so many bases without tanking your frame rate?!
Haven't run in to any performance issues with Subnautica before. The bases are all far apart and pretty small. I don't think it loads them in beyond a certain distance
@@EphiTV i only have an old laptop to play on, but i always (and only) have difficulty at the “endgame”. I thought i had read all bases were always loaded, and my portals always dropped me out of the world, so i generally operated out of a mobile-base Cyclops and one main base near Pod 19 at the entrance to Lost River
Imagine if subnautica was randomly generated. That would be the perfect exploration game.
That would be cool but also really really hard because blueprints needed for game progression would be scattered randomly.
I knew right off the bat he was screwed without making a cyclops for the ships shield lol
1:21 the thing in the background cracks me up!
dude you were so close to beating it. like i have not even beaten it and im here like YOU WENT TO THE AURORA WITH NO SEAMOTH LIKE DAM YOU A MAD LAD.
Something I saw on another video was a person taking two oxygen tanks and they switched between them so they never ran out of it but I believe it only recovered a bit of oxygen
just theoretical thing, you can beat this without the cyclops, you just need probably near impossible luck with some random person putting a cyclops shield generator in a timecapsole, as for the prawn suit for the ion cubes, im not sure there may be for somewhere, but again you can get some impossible luck with some random person putting a shield generator and some extra ion cubes in their timecapsole.
Well you just inspired a new run for me to do, so hey, props to that.
I was genuinely surprised when I saw the alien structures for the first time. Felt like a kid again going: “what the fuck? Holy shit what is this?!” Etc. So happy I went in completely blind
Definitely one of the best games to play without knowing much beforehand.
its always interesting to see how other people play. like "am i doing anything wrong?" sort of curiosity, and while i think this episode was undeniably skewed to having way more "bases" (because they only really ever had like one room and a solar panel/ heat generator) its cool seeing so many in a small way. while in my own game i basically only ever build one. or like maybe two if i ever want to transfer to maybe some superdeep part as a sort of play at being a deep sea researcher. with the cyclops being a bit of a roaming base.
Ah yes, the prawn suit seamoth, the seamoth and the cyclops
