Just imagine. The aroura landing in the void so you have to go 3500 meters down to get a rocket blueprint and what if the lifepod landed in the void aswell... I would just fabricate my face to dust so I don’t gotta deal with those screams of ghosts.
I think its because the captain literally stayed behind and steered it towards land. It says so in the pda logs. Edit: I think that possibility 1 is the most likely because he was very close to landing in the void but managed to get it in the crater, especially since steering a crashing space craft is hard. Also number 5 is likely too.
Considering the fact that technology in subnautica is so advanced that lasers (the fabricstor) can make complex items, it wouldnt be a surprise aurora could have a scanner aboard the ship, so maybe thats how Hollister landed in the crater, i also think that luck helped him alot, cause landing in a 4 by 4 km crater would be hard to do. But again, there's probably tech that can use scanned enviroments and you can set a course for a certain place in the planet. (aka the crater, which has been scanned.)
Yeah, I definitely subscribe to the idea of a combination. For Hollister, he could scan well enough to identify the tiny Floating Island, so he likely would have depth scans too (and, if not, he'd literally be able to see that the crater was lighter in colour than the surrounding water!). Given the relative size of the Aurora compared to the crater, it would have taken extreme skill. For getting there in the first place, they were scanning for the Degasi in the first place, which could have also found the crater due to higher mineral deposits (the whole reason Paul too the detour in the first place).
It landed on the volcano because Captain Keen stayed on the ship to make a controlled landing. He did that because, as he said in an audio log, he knew the crew would need the ship to contact help. The captain has excellent piloting skills to land where he did, spot on!
The PDA recording you played for number one never fails to break my heart. It’s just so darn sad! Keep up the great videos by the way! Love your content!

I think one of the most likely possibilities is that the gun was designed to pull targeted ships using tractor beam technology onto a crash course with the crater in order to give the crew of the ships a surviving chance
@@Jaydenhodson715 Yeah. It killed their people, so it's easier to assume that means that if there was a way to cure Kharaa in their time they'd have taken it, and anyone who might potentially come after could develop a cure or at least a vaccine
I don't think they wanted to cure Kharaa so much as quarantine an incurable disease. I think they thought it was impossible. After all, if the architects couldn't do it who else could? The chances of someone surviving the beam aren't great and anyone that does survive won't have the proper resources or lab equipment. In the real world, one that lacks Macguffin monster goop, curing Kharaa would be like curing super AIDS.
Just so you know the aurora never had intentions to land on 4546B, but my main thought for the aurora not landing in the void would be because the captain saw a place to crash land the ship (The crash zone also known as the creator)
yeah they did they were looking for the missing degasi and were flying near and got shot down maybe not full intentions but there was a reason they were there
I have my own theory that a lot less of the planet is void than we thought. Perhaps there are multiple craters, or entire underwater "continents", and that the one subnautica takes place on is just one of the many non-void areas on 4546B
My personal favourite theory is that the precursors made the QIP to have any ship land in the crater so they have a chance at discovering the cure to the karar, it also makes alot of since if you think about it But sadly that isn’t the case
I know the Aurora is gigantic, but most of the ship is hanging off the edge of the volcano, so even that it did land there, the ship should have fell into the void. To keep it sturdy like it is, it would had have to lost alot of chunks of the ship, that you find around the area near its landing, so I suppose the front of the ship being torn apart helps it balance without tipping over. Also, what's supposed to be down in the void, it's just a big rock sticking off the ocean floor?
In case you're curious, if 4546B is the about the same size as Earth, the probability of landing on a 2 km stretch of any land on the surface would be 3.333333333%
Ok, I know this isn't relevant, but I have a theory about the sunken ship in Below Zero. The ship was not the Degasi ship, but the rescue ship sent after the Degasi. The life pods could not cover such a long distance without getting attacked by the ghost leviathans. In several PDA entries, Paul Torgal mentioned an insurance company that would send a rescue ship.
Interesting, that's a really cool theory to think about. There are lots of theories on that topic, I think it would be cool to make a video on that sometime...
It is in one PDA. They seek Torgal's and Maugerite. There is information aurora repeating manuver of delgasi spining around planet on same coordinates and similar speed. They likely were shoot in same position, some of wreckage we found are parts of delgasi ship they fall down on same trail like later aurora parts did. And we know they were shoot by the same cannon. If u Ask why sunbeam didnt fall same: first it was too smaller than other two ships, seckond crew of sunbeam didnt try to repeat manuver of delgasi, third it come from difrent way and much closer to sutface when shoot and lastly we can save sunbeam if we quick enought swim to instalation and turn its off before we get infested, so we cannot say that its destruction is canon.
I think you're right and that explains it. The only thing is why the Degasi was able to land in the crater. They must've been very lucky. Or maybe something else.
Shooting a ship in orbit doesn't bring it out of orbit (its not an airplane). It would just be a busted ship still in orbit. In order to hit land at all, either the weapon is also a tractor beam or the ship is already landing.
I think the degasi and the Aurora both landed in the crater just because of the route they were taking and because the quarantine enforcement platform is controlled by an A.I it would of shot the exact time they were in orbit I think the degasi was just luck but the Aurora was because it was sent to recover the crew and it would of taking the same route as to find the ship But it was likely to be just steered in the direction of the nearest land after being hit
Maybe the Aurora was going to land there since that was the Area where they got the last transmission of the digosy besides we do see an island in the trailer might’ve been a small part of it but it could’ve been big enough to set the Aurora
Wasn't there a signal that you got from either one of the pods or the ship that said it was a potential landing sight for the Aurora, meaning they were heading for the floating island but got shot down by the beam and weren't able to slow down enough to fall onto the island
Honestly altera just simply wanted to land at one of the only shallow area's, because as you see the quarantine enforcement platform only shoots in about 500m
I’ve always seen it as the aurora heading towards the volcanic crater because it was heading there to see what happened to the degasi ship so the captain steered it as close as possible to the area
well the captain did say he is "attempting a controlled decent" so he would have tried to get the ship to dry land which would be the crater so it would be unlikely that the aurora landed in deeper water.
I think the first theory u listed because of the voice log, it's got the most evidence of it actually happening. Also what if there were other ships that weren't so lucky and actually *did* land in the void. So many theories...
Yes, I love Subnautica theory :D. The captain probably did steer the ship to some extent, it makes the most sense and has the most evidence like you said and it is definitely possible that other ships could have landed in the void. I think some of the Aurora's lifepods actually did land in the void, because you can only explore like 10 of them in the game. Thanks for all the support btw :)
Now I could be wrong as I haven't played that much of the game yet, but did it ever say that there was only *one* crater? There may be multiple and the Auroras chances weren't that low?
I think what's probably most likely is that liveable land mass on this planet is actually a LOT bigger than our in game world, but for our sake the void appears a lot sooner to us as they could not possibly make a world so big. Not to say it'd be tens of thousands of miles but probably highly unlikely that there's only a 2x2km zone of liveable landmass before being surrounded on all sides by practically unliveable void. That and a combination of these. In the real world this world would be incredible wide spread but since it's just a game and we need to enjoy it, it is so small to us :)
The degasi came to the planet with the express purpose of scouting for resources. Why would they land anywhere but on land. Also, the enforcement platform is a line of sight weapon. This means that even if it could fire at 0 elevation if the digasi approach was low they could of gotten within a few dozen kms before they could even be targeted with a low approach. The Aurora was specifically targeting the digasi crash sight as a secondary mission. As the voice log shows, they were only a few seconds (apox 30s) from atmo entry suggesting that the Aurora was already within a few hundred kms before the first shot. The aurora also took several shots to bring down. First before the evacuation, second after getting into the escape pod, possibly a 3rd during the voice log. So it took multiple shots just knock-out comms. The ship landed relatively intact, giving believability to the potential of a somewhat controlled landing. Which is what the captain was trying to do. Added to this the fact that your escape pod landed near the islands shows that even with a purely ballistic trajectory the ship would have landed nearby regardless, as evidenced by all the debris you go scouting through. I don't see any plot holes here, and it makes good sense to me.
I think the Aurore got hit by an astride or dibry from the degasy then the capten steers to an island but than got shot down and fald on landing on an island?? And in the PDA the capten called before the ship got shot down;)
I think that the Captain attempted to crash land on the only landmass he feasibly could (which I think used to be the crash zone.) Since the aurora is so big, I think he would steer it towards the bigger land mass, because he does say that he’s going to attempt to land on a landmass. This could also explain why we never find the degasi crash site, because the degasi landed on the same island as the aurora did.
I think the likely cause is the Captain aiming for the crater, as well as the design of the QEP. The thing is, the Precursors were trying to PREVENT more death by installing the Quarantine Enforcement Platform, meaning that unless the ship was extremely small, (like Sunbeam,) the QEP would fire towards the center, or the thrusters, of any ships taking off or landing, causing the hull to be heavily damaged, rendering the ships unable to leave the planet. It is also likely that the Gun draws ships inwards towards the crater, so that those onboard the ships may survive, or at least attempt to, as with Sunbeam, all of her thrusters are set to Full Ahead, in order to get the ship out of the way, however the ship continues to simply plummet towards the QEP, even if Sunbeam can be seen righting herself due to her thrusters. TL;DR, The Quarantine Enforcement Platform is designed to draw ships into the crater so their occupants may survive, and Aurora's Captain intentionally aimed for the crater as well.
Considering the seemingly very advanced technology a plausible theory is that the planet was scanned before hand, this information leading the Captain along with a possible auto pilot to steer it toward the crater. It could have been simply planning and knowledge.
I think that the most likely possibility is the captain steering it into the crater. The crew of the aurora was fairly small for the ships size, and we learn that they were heading into deep space to construct a phase gate (Something which would probably take alot of skill and effort to do) meaning that most of the crew were probably skilled engineers. With a small crew, more people have to be essential to it's creating; including the Captian who was most likely very good at his job at Piloting the Aurora.
What happened was a flood in the degasi base after a reaper attack. They landed in the crater's edge, and when their base in grand reef was destroyed, she killed and lived in a reaper until below zero.
Maybe the degasi aimed at the crater on purpose and the gun shot it down and it crashed down. then you go down the same way and before you come the stalkers ate the degasi ship.
@@vihaansrivastava4956 yeah but the escapepods should still have them in them on several different Systems incase some of them fail. Just imagin the situation: the ship is about to explode. Everyone evacuate immediately. UNLESS YOU FORGOT YOU PDA, IN THIS CASE GO BACK AND GET IT, AS YOU WILL HAVE NO WAY OF RETURNING BACK HOME WITHOUT IT!
I know this is an old video, but still, here is a possibility: I think the Degasi simply landed near where there could be land, the first base of the Degasi Crew was in the Floating Island, so it's highly likely that the Degasi Vessel landed on the void and the lifepods that included Paul, Bart and Marguerit landed next to the Floating Island
Great video, mate! But there is one thing that doesn't quite fit what you are saying. If the Precursors wanted that whatever gets shot down by the cannon actually survives, then why did they develop all those other security messures inside the planet itself like the Warpers, for example? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe Warpers were created to eliminate infected foreigners.
Don't Warpers only appear near the Turret? They could have just been an additional line of defense to male sure that the Turret didn't get deactivated or damaged.
Still a lot more lucky than one of the 25 life pods that launched that didn't have working floatation devices, and fell into the miles of void that took weeks for one person to escape from, and they already had enough food to survive.
I believe on something in the quarintine enforcement platform says that it is able to manipulate the planets gravitational field, so I think 3 or 5 are the most probable.
Well, Alterra didn't really know that the Degasi landed in the crater as the manifests for the crewmembers simply say they are "lost in space near planet 4546B", but I'm guessing that the Precursors, being highly advanced, the Q.E.P. was designed to shoot down ships so they would land in shallow water, therefore they would have a way higher chance of survival and be able to potentially discover the cure. Obviously, it couldn't make all ships specifically land in the crater as seen in Mercury II, but it still landed in a shallow area. I think the Q.E.P. shot down the Aurora specifically too land in the crater, as long as they didn't steer away, which Captain Hollister steered toward the crater, so it worked out.
Everyone in the aurora was listening to music with headphones except for Riley and the caption so the caption steered his way to the crater while riley was aware the ship was going to crash so he got to the escape pod in time while the others were vibing to music\ maybe???
I have a small detail I want to point out with possibility 2. Auxiliary means secondary or support, so the the mission orders of locating the Degasi were not the main ones. It even says in the PDA that the Aurora was to make every effort to find them *without compromising the primary orders*. Just a small detail but great video nonetheless 👍
The quiestion "Why didn't degasi land in the void aswell" can explained thanks to sunbeam. It looks like ships before landing or even getting close to the planet scan them to find a place for landing. Degasi probably did the same and they found the volcanic crater. They flied there and got shot down.
Fast answer: captain at the helm. In-game, there is an audio where he refuses to get to the life pods, knowing they would need the ship's comm system to call Alterra. So the ship landed where it did, because he made it land there.
He said "I'm attempting a controlled descent" meaning that he was controlling the ship and made it crash in the crater and he said there where island near by so he tried to get the ship close to area if he survived
i think the captained steered the aurora nearby the crater. The only reason i think this is the line he said. "I'm attempting a controlled descent" and he would've spotted that bit of landmass and steered towards it

If the aurora landed in the void then after about 7000 meters it would’ve just respawn.

And then it would crush the safe shallows. Bye bye crash fish.
It will constantly go up and down gaining speed and will eventually rip the space time continuum
@@Dragonking7700 No, it would respawn at the crater.

That and a combination of these. In the real world this world would be incredible wide spread but since it's just a game and we need to enjoy it, it is so small to us :)
You inspire me, I could do with some advise, any chance I could have a chat one day
Dev:leaves loophole in story
UA-camrs: So the reason must be *advanced philosophical reasoning for an unreal theory*
Dev: yes
The degasi came to the planet with the express purpose of scouting for resources. Why would they land anywhere but on land. Also, the enforcement platform is a line of sight weapon. This means that even if it could fire at 0 elevation if the digasi approach was low they could of gotten within a few dozen kms before they could even be targeted with a low approach. The Aurora was specifically targeting the digasi crash sight as a secondary mission. As the voice log shows, they were only a few seconds (apox 30s) from atmo entry suggesting that the Aurora was already within a few hundred kms before the first shot. The aurora also took several shots to bring down. First before the evacuation, second after getting into the escape pod, possibly a 3rd during the voice log. So it took multiple shots just knock-out comms. The ship landed relatively intact, giving believability to the potential of a somewhat controlled landing. Which is what the captain was trying to do. Added to this the fact that your escape pod landed near the islands shows that even with a purely ballistic trajectory the ship would have landed nearby regardless, as evidenced by all the debris you go scouting through. I don't see any plot holes here, and it makes good sense to me.
I think the Aurore got hit by an astride or dibry from the degasy then the capten steers to an island but than got shot down and fald on landing on an island?? And in the PDA the capten called before the ship got shot down;)
Nice vid! love your content
I think that the Captain attempted to crash land on the only landmass he feasibly could (which I think used to be the crash zone.) Since the aurora is so big, I think he would steer it towards the bigger land mass, because he does say that he’s going to attempt to land on a landmass. This could also explain why we never find the degasi crash site, because the degasi landed on the same island as the aurora did.
This made me realize how lucky we really were considering the void takes up most of the planet
I think the likely cause is the Captain aiming for the crater, as well as the design of the QEP. The thing is, the Precursors were trying to PREVENT more death by installing the Quarantine Enforcement Platform, meaning that unless the ship was extremely small, (like Sunbeam,) the QEP would fire towards the center, or the thrusters, of any ships taking off or landing, causing the hull to be heavily damaged, rendering the ships unable to leave the planet. It is also likely that the Gun draws ships inwards towards the crater, so that those onboard the ships may survive, or at least attempt to, as with Sunbeam, all of her thrusters are set to Full Ahead, in order to get the ship out of the way, however the ship continues to simply plummet towards the QEP, even if Sunbeam can be seen righting herself due to her thrusters.
TL;DR, The Quarantine Enforcement Platform is designed to draw ships into the crater so their occupants may survive, and Aurora's Captain intentionally aimed for the crater as well.
I started subnataca when I started watching you and amazing work
Considering the seemingly very advanced technology a plausible theory is that the planet was scanned before hand, this information leading the Captain along with a possible auto pilot to steer it toward the crater. It could have been simply planning and knowledge.
I think that the most likely possibility is the captain steering it into the crater. The crew of the aurora was fairly small for the ships size, and we learn that they were heading into deep space to construct a phase gate (Something which would probably take alot of skill and effort to do) meaning that most of the crew were probably skilled engineers. With a small crew, more people have to be essential to it's creating; including the Captian who was most likely very good at his job at Piloting the Aurora.
What I wanna know is where they were even planning to land the ship on an ocean planet
They weren’t. The Aurora was meant to build a new stargate, and never land on 4546b itself. It got shot down by the quarantine enforcement platform.
They Also see if there was any survivors from the degasi but not land
Mate love your vid the degasi did land in the void as in below zero Margarita said after the crash she had to live on the hid if a reaper livathen
What happened was a flood in the degasi base after a reaper attack. They landed in the crater's edge, and when their base in grand reef was destroyed, she killed and lived in a reaper until below zero.
Maybe the degasi aimed at the crater on purpose and the gun shot it down and it crashed down. then you go down the same way and before you come the stalkers ate the degasi ship.
The captain did make sure it landed on land so that the crew could get the blueprints.
This opens up a new question: why aren't the blueprints already on the escapepods?
@@jebkerman5422 They were in The crew's PDA but PDA's got corrupted
@@vihaansrivastava4956 yeah but the escapepods should still have them in them on several different Systems incase some of them fail. Just imagin the situation: the ship is about to explode. Everyone evacuate immediately. UNLESS YOU FORGOT YOU PDA, IN THIS CASE GO BACK AND GET IT, AS YOU WILL HAVE NO WAY OF RETURNING BACK HOME WITHOUT IT!
I know this is an old video, but still, here is a possibility:
I think the Degasi simply landed near where there could be land, the first base of the Degasi Crew was in the Floating Island, so it's highly likely that the Degasi Vessel landed on the void and the lifepods that included Paul, Bart and Marguerit landed next to the Floating Island
What if it was the gravitational pull of the crater which is greater than the one in the other part of the world since it is closer to the surface?
Great video, mate! But there is one thing that doesn't quite fit what you are saying. If the Precursors wanted that whatever gets shot down by the cannon actually survives, then why did they develop all those other security messures inside the planet itself like the Warpers, for example? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe Warpers were created to eliminate infected foreigners.
Don't Warpers only appear near the Turret? They could have just been an additional line of defense to male sure that the Turret didn't get deactivated or damaged.
nice the theorys re amazing
Glad you like them!
How the aurora didn’t land in the void: that wouldn’t be as good of a game as subnautica is
The reason the Aurora landed in a safer area is simply,
Plot armor
Still a lot more lucky than one of the 25 life pods that launched that didn't have working floatation devices, and fell into the miles of void that took weeks for one person to escape from, and they already had enough food to survive.
I remember this video. I remember also liking it and I'm glad that's still the case!
I believe on something in the quarintine enforcement platform says that it is able to manipulate the planets gravitational field, so I think 3 or 5 are the most probable.
I think the captain tried to land on an island as when you head there you can see small bits of land and could explain why cave crawlers are there
That is a very likely possibility. Because there is much evidence that there used to be an island in the crash zone.
@@SpeedyMouse I would say the only problem with the theory would be the trailer as it shows the aura crashing into water and not land let me check.
@@SpeedyMouse there is an island but the aura misses it and it doesn't look like mountain or degasi island
Well, the trailer isn't necessarily accurate. But that is true. It would be a very small island.
Excelent videos and channel and more :)
You are the bes... no
Your are the best gamer youtuber history and a lot more!!!!
Thank you so much 😀. You are the best fan! XD
For some reason I just love your voice
I like this kid. He makes some good stuff.
Well, Alterra didn't really know that the Degasi landed in the crater as the manifests for the crewmembers simply say they are "lost in space near planet 4546B", but I'm guessing that the Precursors, being highly advanced, the Q.E.P. was designed to shoot down ships so they would land in shallow water, therefore they would have a way higher chance of survival and be able to potentially discover the cure. Obviously, it couldn't make all ships specifically land in the crater as seen in Mercury II, but it still landed in a shallow area. I think the Q.E.P. shot down the Aurora specifically too land in the crater, as long as they didn't steer away, which Captain Hollister steered toward the crater, so it worked out.
Everyone in the aurora was listening to music with headphones except for Riley and the caption
so the caption steered his way to the crater while riley was aware the ship was going to crash
so he got to the escape pod in time while the others were vibing to music\
maybe???
I have a small detail I want to point out with possibility 2. Auxiliary means secondary or support, so the the mission orders of locating the Degasi were not the main ones. It even says in the PDA that the Aurora was to make every effort to find them *without compromising the primary orders*. Just a small detail but great video nonetheless 👍
I just wondered, what if you used and uninfected fish to turn the laser off(even though you cant that would be cool if u could)
I agree, that would be cool. I've definitely thought about that before...
The quiestion "Why didn't degasi land in the void aswell" can explained thanks to sunbeam. It looks like ships before landing or even getting close to the planet scan them to find a place for landing. Degasi probably did the same and they found the volcanic crater. They flied there and got shot down.
Fast answer: captain at the helm. In-game, there is an audio where he refuses to get to the life pods, knowing they would need the ship's comm system to call Alterra. So the ship landed where it did, because he made it land there.
He said "I'm attempting a controlled descent" meaning that he was controlling the ship and made it crash in the crater and he said there where island near by so he tried to get the ship close to area if he survived
In the Black box data it says making a gravity turn maneuver which could have with luck could have steered them into the direction
My theory is that the devs didn't want the player to spawn in the void
There are multiple islands as seen in the ending so I guess it isn't that hard to steer the ship to an elevated part of the world
i think the captained steered the aurora nearby the crater. The only reason i think this is the line he said. "I'm attempting a controlled descent" and he would've spotted that bit of landmass and steered towards it
Maybe before u wake up the millions of ghost leviations pushed the arora from the edge before it killed them all
