10 Things I Wish I Knew Before Playing Subnautica

Only just got this recommended - great video! :)

YOU PUTTED CUDDLE FISH EGGS IN BIOREACTOR YOU MONSTER

Breathtaker just got his ticket to hell with cuddle fish eggs in a bio reactor

sadly, number 7 was patched

Bro went from 300 subs to 4k in one month

Your talking about leviathans and such, i just dont know how to progress, took me ages to find all the beacon fragments

If you need stalker teeth just build a scanner room in the green kelp biome and scan for stalker tooth

How are you not popular this is such a good quality

ok for tip 7 i did not know there was an "intended" entrance, i just kinda found the second one almost immediately after getting on ship

Imma be honest, I didn’t even know about the primary entrance to the aurora until my second play through. That’s probably why I never make a propulsion cannon… like, ever.

Tip: You can make 30 stats water from salt and coral witch is so much easier and better than the 20 stats water from bladderfish.

I have 1 stalker with 1 piece of salvage next to my base. The stalker is so busy with it. I have hundreds of teeth lying around. :))) Starts to get really messy.

Pfff one beacon. I used to have a whole chest of them in my cyclops and carry a multitude of em prior. They are very handy to map the whole world

Did you just stick 16 cuddlefish eggs into your bioreactor? YOU MONSTER!!

No way u used cuddle fish in bio reactor😢😢

Ive only played this games once time totaligonna do another playthrough

years later, even after all the bug patches. I can't ever truly finish the game, cause any time I hop into the PRAWN Suit...I almost always glitch through the floor! thus negating the need or desire to fully finish the game! (& if I remember correctly, using console commands, disable the rewards/achievents!)

Or for no.9, come equipped with a Prawn suit, with a grappling arm and a hull upgrade and an extra added safety of a Thermal Knife and a Stasis Rifle. Worked everytime for all my playthroughs, on my 9th killing spree of leviathans in my current playthrough (reapers, ghosts and sea dragons)

1. you will swim faster (above and below water) if you don't have an item equipped, taking up one of your hands. So put that knife away when you don't need it.
2. metal salvage that has a YELLOW stripe can drop a stalker tooth (also, drop a beacon at a "stalker nest" where they tend to drop the salvage, and come back there to collect teeth as they pick up and set salvage down there - don't loot all the salvage, leave it there for them to chew on and generate more teeth)
3. easily change power priority by completely disassembling and rebuilding the thing you want to lower the priority on, like bio reactor. remember you will lose your fuel though in case you are short on nuclear rods. You can also stop a structure from using fuel by knocking a few percent off its build, reducing it to like 98%. So "turn off" your nuke when you don't want it to run. Let your water filters finish bottling water and give your thermal plants time to recharge so it doesn't try to dig into your fuel reserves.
4. "being stranded outside should never be a problem".... but after said mob chews on your prawn for awhile, you HAVE TO go outside to repair it. That's usually what gets me.

Faster swimming on the water surface makes no sense! In real life you are way mote faster underwater, that is the reason behind competitive swimming's limitations regarding how long can you stay underwater at certain types. GTAV got this right, but ut's strange that Subnautica is the game that fails in this stuff.

Wth is that cave In the beginning when he talks about finding something again?

i just started playing and i dont know where to find lead for the radiation suit, i mean the radio sends me to 400 meters for a life pod, WITHOUT A SEAMOTH, so yeah, where to find lead

I never took the Cyclops to where the Leviathans was. I used the enforced diving suit and the sea glide below where the Seamoth could go.

How do I A food source

Thanks for the video, I could add one more piece of advice: it is very important to have a marine garden with all the plants that allow it. Getting a seed is a guarantee of not needing to travel the entire map for a plant resource.

Daddy

few questions:
1.Whats the best way to find the Propulsion Cannon?
2.When i want to go to Aurora and i have the radiation suit and that kind of stuff what should i bring with me like a lot of water and food, or just leave more space in the inventory for the stuff that i will find there?
3. Does the Cyclops use battery or does it work on its own?
4.Whats the best way to reach Aurorra whidout getting involved with leviatans?
PS: love your content bro you got a sub, keep up the good work!

This was so helpful I just got the game

Is it possible to scan the sea dragon?

Wow nice and good Video

Was worried about watching this after constantly getting it recommended to me for fear is spoilers, but luckily I did! Learned a few things and spoiler free from what I've played through so far. Great vid

Some really good advice, particularly with the beacon and power. Not sure swimming into a vent to collect fish, is really a good idea generally.

The thing I wish I had known was that you don't need to pilot the Cyclops and you don't need the prawn suit at all. As long as you collect as many ion cubes as possible, are prepared to swim to the Alien thermal plant and primary containment facility to activate the Alien Arches (which means you will encounter the sea dragon).

You forgot 1 really game breaking trick, something that has been in the game since day 1 but has been forgotten over time, when you run out of oxygen, if you have any raw bladderfish, eat them raw, they give you additional oxygen which could be the difference between living and loosing all your farmed materials

I'm sorry, that was the HIDDEN ENTRANCE???? I thought that was just the intended way in!

Only got Subnautica a couple of weeks ago, and these kind of videos have really helped me survive, though I figured out the first tip myself, I used the destroyed lifepods as beacons as well simply because they are always available to be used as nav points.

One trick I learned is that if a biome is to deep for solar power, particularly for a Scanner Base, you can construct a series of I connectors until you reach around 170-150 Meters. You will be able to build on top of the connectors. Once your Scanner Base is constructed, you can deconstruct the connectors to salvage Titanium and the Scanner Base will remain hovering in the middle of the deep water.

He put cuddlefish eggs in the bio reactor

I loved watching jacksepticeye play this game but when I played the full release on ps4 it had so many bugs and issues it just wasn't fun to play

let me be real, i did use beacons only for important ways to go deeper, and after various runs i finally realised that i could make a map and i started using only one beacon after finishing the map (well i only use the surface map but i already know where to go in deeper caves)

The fact that he used that creature egg for the bioreactor 😭

The "alternate entrance" to the Aurora was the only entrance during much of early access, so it took me until about 6 months after the full release to even find out that there was another entrance that you were "supposed to use."
