- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 16 พ.ค. 2024
- Hello everyone and welcome back to my blind playthrough of Subnautica! Today is a bit of a slower episode, it's now clear we need to go deeper below but before we can do that, there's a lot of upgrading to do! Which means we gotta farm a lot of resources and build ourselves up!

Luk purposefully named this episode to make it sound boring so that people don't watch it and find out he filled his seamoth with poop.
Have not finished watching yet (seen the poop scene), but I am so hoping he will start a farm.
edit: Nope
You really think I'm falling for that?
Edit: oh.
Lukael: you don't get brain damage from sleeping with no oxygen, it's fine
Also Lukael: refuses to swim through imaginary glass at the diease facility
😂
This is the part of the game where everyone feels overwhelmed. The cyclops is difficult, you have move down the lost river, the game stops telling you where to go. It’s a grind and you feel it.
I hope he doesn't give up on the Cyclops, but it's really for late game stages
Nickel is the bane of everyone since it really blends into the environment for sure.
1:24:24 "If only I had some kind of scanner..."
If only 😉
Yeah, I usually make sure to carry the resources for a scanner room, a couple of thermal plants, and four range upgrades inside the cyclops at all times. Then I can (de)construct and scan wherever I want. A power cell charger is convenient here too.
Enjoy the episode guys! I've finished the game at this point so you scoundrels can go wild in the comments if you want! 😂
A lot of farming in this one but still had a lot of fun and found time to explore a bit!
Congrats on finishing! Hope you really enjoyed the game! Can't wait to see how you got on in the deeper biomes. Xxx
On a personal note, your playthrough inspired me to play this game through again. Am currently setting up a base down by the Cove tree.
Thank you for all your hard work in this series, been amazing seeing you progress blind.
grats on finishing.
Congrats, but sad that you kinda had to do that so you would be backseated or spoiled anymore...
Already finished? So how many episodes we have left?
Also I wonder if you found the wonders of farming and the power of lantern tree - the ultimate food.
You don't drive the cyclops without using the cameras. Rotating fast through the two main cameras is the key to enjoy driving the cyclops.
This!! The camera located on the underside of the cyclops is honestly essential. I use it for the majority of my navigating
That is something I would be completely incapable of.
@@Great_Olaf5 Not at all, with very little practice it's much more natural than the other way. It's extremely easy. It's the natural way to drive the cyclops. It feels more dynamic and the sight range is huge.
Maneuvring is so much easier. If I can do it, being the clumsiest person in the world, you can do it for sure.
@@Alfonso88279 it has nothing to do with clumsiness. My eyes suck, they do not adjust to images quickly enough for that to be at all possible for me. If someone tries to show me something on their phone, it takes me a solid minute to separate out the subject from the background.
@@halla3184 Yes, the keel camera.
I hope you realize that this is an integral part of the game. Sometimes you have to do some grinding and farming to get the cool shiny things! That coral tube drop was freaking hilarious! Got a good laugh out of that.
The game developers did a good job with not holding your hand forever. They show you the basics and then let you go. I'm amazed how some players complain about having to explore the environment. Some want everything to be given to them. Discovery is the reward here. No guts, no glory. Also, some of the best tools are the smallest ones like Creature Decoys. You don't have to use power for shields when you send the Leviathans on a wild goose chase with the decoys. Think smarter in using the environment to your benefit. You figure things out after a while. Some players are just stubborn and suffer for it. I'm playing the game again, but modded. It's really fun now. Enjoy many of the things you wish you had during the standard play-through. I recommend doing this strictly for the fun of it. I enjoy your journey through this game.
Err, the Cyclops has external cameras for a reason.
And that reason is basically everything you seem to have problems with.
I forgor
@@LukaelPlays ?
I'm glad you realized the problem with a power cell charger on your Cyclops. Many reactors I've seen took a while to figure that out. One thing you can do is always carry enough resources to build a multi-purpose room, a bio-reactor, and a power cell charger. Build it. Charge. Disassemble. Move on.
I seem to distinctly recall one LPer to use one onboard successfully. Mathas IIRC wound up almost completely nomadic.
Why would a power cell charger powered by power cells be a non-sustainable problem, in this universe? After all, you can grow crops in an indoor growbed powered by a bioreactor "burning" those same crops, for infinite energy and then some more.
It took me a sad amount of time to realize the error of my logic. Waaayyy too long with me wondering why my power cells ran out so fast while I was using my power to recharge cells. Lol
@@sophiamarchildon3998 Try it and see.
@@sophiamarchildon3998because with the crops you grow more than is needed to sustain the bioreactors. With power cells, not only is there no excess, but you need power to use the cyclops resulting in eventually running out.
Lukael is the person that turns on the cabin lights in the car at night so he can see better.
Lukael you are a tough but fair shark daddy 😂
Sorry if this is backseating, but when I pilot the Cyclops I turn off the interior lights to make it easier to see out the front, but I primarily drive it while using the onboard exterior cameras.
no worries about the backseating now anyways as he has completed the game already. But yea it does feel like the general approach is to complain about something rather than solving it. A lot of the things he brings up has ingame solutions. But enjoyable nontheless
Yes, best to drive dark.
Very entertaining episode. Really enjoyed the trip to the depths with the cyclops. Wasnt boring!
You said we can go willd so:
1. Ez way to have enough food and water would be growing some lantern trees you found on one island. They give a bunch of water and food and they are a lot of them on 1 tree. if you are fast enough you can completely live of the nutrient blocks while outside of your base.
2. To solve the game the seamoth with 900 depths is enough. You only need a second air tank to swim to the giant generator from the giant tree
3. Outside grow bedths. You never used them. Very useful for growing the blood oil plants and different mushrooms. i think 3 seeds and 1 plant per planted seed
4. Your power problems would be solved building a thermal plant at the nearby thermal vents combined with a power transmitter which covers a huge distance
Interesting! honestly there is so much in this game that I couldn't try everything in one run, but it leaves me some options for a potential future replay of the game!
Stop saying it’s boring! 😂 you’re going to create a self fulfilling prophecy.
Now that there are no spoilers, there are 4 entrances to the Lost River. The Deep Grand Reef (Deep Degasi Habitat), The Blood Kelp Trench (Near the Sea Treaders, specifically under that wreck you explored in the first part of the episode. The Northern Blood Kelp Zone, which is where Lifepod 2 is, and finally the entrance you first located, between the Bulb Zone and Mountains.
I prefer to use the Mountains/Bulb Zone entrance with the Cyclops, because getting down the other 3 entrances is a little tight and there's lots of stuff to get hung up on. But there is no "right" or "wrong" way. The only problem with the Bulb Zone area is you can't explore it before repairing the Aurora because it's in the radiation zone, and you don't get the radiation suit until after the Aurora explodes.
Also, I think the farming episodes are fine. That's just how part of the game goes. I think you're making great progress. Hopefully there's 2 eps left and not just 1.
53:59 looks in locker 3 times and ignores that he has the cyclops engine mod that reduces the energy usage already. so focused on magnetite.then he sees he has extra power cells , looks again and still ignores the mod. then goes and makes another efficiency mod lol. protip: for stuff like mod station ,scanner room, moonpool, vehicle upgrade console etc you can deconstruct them and take them with you. just be sure to remove scanner room mods first.
I definitely get tunnel vision 😂 but it's also kinda hard to recognize these modules at a glance
I would not disassemble the scanner room.
It is very useful when you need to return for extra titanium.
Plus Lukael have a ton of other machines inside.
@@hubertnnn takes about 10 seconds to rebuild it. you can take the upgrades out and put them back in. and no you don't put tons of other machines inside. it's just a scanner room. He's done with the game anyway. I was mostly putting it there so maybe if he plays BZ he would remember it.
@@hubertnnn tons of titanium to drill for in the depths
Got my beer and my burgers, I'm ready to watch 😁 cant wait for below zero.
Also it never gets old to watch people put power cell chargers inside the cyclops thinking it will charge the cell, when in reality all it does is siphon power from the cell installed into the cyclops power system and transfer it to the cell in the charger. Also you dont need the decoys If you know how the cyclops stealth system works.
Theres a small faint bubble around your cyclops on the radar. That's your sound signature, potential threats swimming around you will appear as a red dot. If that red dot enters the the faint bubble. It will detect you and possibly attack. If it does, activate the shield generator and try to get away from it and regain stealth. You can make sound bubble smaller by activating Silent Running and lowering your speed. I just stay normal speed and it's mostly fine for me when dodging the ghost leviathan. Using sonar doesnt increase your sound signature. But uses more power, shield generator takes a lot more power. Having thermal recharge is nice for when you take the cyclops to lost river, since theres thermal vents everywhere.
If only they'd let you build a nuclear or bio reactor inside. It makes plenty of sense in the game's logic, and there's plenty of room for either or both, . Add some growbeds, and voilà: infinite energy autonomy, just like at home base. Waste time steadily removing leeches from the 'clops? Nah, it's no longer a bother.
Sorry, I have to say it because it made me laugh (and because I know you've completed the game at this point):
Lukael: "I have no choice but to make noise."
Silent running button on Cyclops: "Am I a joke to you?"
Practice and learn from your mistakes. The cyclops is not the greatest vehicle, but not impossible. Late game challenge everyone had to go through. Looking forward to seeing how the playthrough ends, Lukael. Thanks for taking us on the ride and congrats on finishing!
Watching the Cyclops grind against every rock & wall felt like that scene in Galaxy Quest.
the game desginers don't want to turn you into the fighter. I heard a documentary about the game, and it was a very early principle that there would be no weapon in the game (the story I heard was about a mass shooting close to the beginning of the production, and a general disgust of the designers to violent solutions in videeo games). you're not here to kill but to avoid danger when possible.
Honestly I was mostly joking about killing predators, I wouldn't want this to be that type of game, if you've seen some of my other playthroughs, I actually really appreciate when games aren't about violence 😄
@@LukaelPlays because you already finished the game: Every Creature in the game (exept 1) can be killed.
And the power cell recharge issue is why I usually build a small thermal base right by the big cove tree lol. Sometimes you gotta just have a tiny secondary base.
It's also nice to drop a scanner room down there for nickel and some other bits and bobs that are hard to find.
Also, honestly, one of the nice things about Subnautica is that you *aren't* encouraged to kill the local wildlife. It's about surviving in an ecosystem where you're an interloper. Idk it's a nice change from other games where the goal is to kill all the big bad bosses.
okay I've seen a dozen playthroughs and have myself played through 3 times and have never seen anyone drop the prawn in a coral tube. since you've already finished I'll give you some tips for next time in case you want to do it again. you can grow plants in the cyclops and have food and water all the time. some plant pots with a couple of bulbos and you're golden. mod station, fabricator,moonpool and scanner room are easily deconstructed and transportable and useable wherever you go,, thermal plants or a nuke plant work great for deep sea bases, most materials can be found deep other than creepvine and acid mushrooms. piloting the sub is a lot easier using the cameras.
I find it funny that you say that you didn’t know about that path into the lost river from the degasi habitat, despite the fact that that’s how you were entering it beforehand
I didn't know they were the same place 😆
I was refreshing the page waiting for this to drop
Lukael luking for some nikael. 😉😁
Also, "I'd rather be moving around in something smaller!" Oh, you mean like, oh, say... A PRAWN SUIT!?!?!?!?! 😁
As for the Cyclops, it's...well, it - um. I can say what I personally use it as - mobile base. A mobile carrier from which I launch my prawn suit for exploration.
Ehehe well the prawn suit still feels a bit too clunky for me compared to the Seamoth but it does have its uses!
@@LukaelPlays Have you tried the grapple?
@@LukaelPlays needs jumpjet upgrade. with it prawn is more agile.
pretty sure each reactor rod provides up to 20,000 energy before needing to be thrown out, and each reactor can hold 4 rods. a maxed out cyclops has a full charge of 6000 energy
3:13 Alien Containment spoiler.
If you build a stack of multipurpose rooms atop one another and build Alien Containments inside them, they will connect to each other.
This confers several benefits.
Plants that need more room to grow tall can grow fully, like your Blood Vine.
You can put hatches on different levels and use it like a water elevator.
It increases fiah capacity.
If there is s containment in the room below, the upper room will have a glass floor looking into it.
It is actually surprisingly easy to get rid of all the Leviathans, and all you need is a statis rifle, a heatblade, and A LOT of courage. They got on my nerves a little too much, so I disposed of them all
Damn 😨
Meanwhile here I am waiting for the Creature Eggs mod so I can breed them haha.
Stasis rifle and dozen of gas pods do a job quicker, besides - you can't kill sea dragon with a thermoblade. With gas pods you can.
Double punching with the prawn suit also works very well. The reaper is even kind enough to hold you while you punch it in the face. As soon as it lets go, you can repair and try again. I've killed many a reaper that way. Ghost Leviathans are a little trickier but still doable. I was once lucky to land on top of one while it tried to swim through a wall so I could continue to slap it until it became a real ghost. 😀
Yeah, that's what what's her name from the Degassi did. But on the other hand, a drill arm can expedite the process.
Lukael: **Drives a huge submarine on 3 feet of water**
Also Lukael: **Gets mad at getting stuck**
😅
The prawn suit is axtuslly the fastest way to move in game if you know how to use the grapple arm properly, and ironically, it can also be the slowest way to travel. Also you can kill anything in the game, i stabbed a sea dragon to death. Not sure about the reefbacks though, never had a reason to hurt them.
Also if you wanna see the adult ghost leviathan, go outside the map boarder, go to the space gun on the surface and just keep going past it out of bounds.
We old school beta Subnautica divers are proud of your progress. The only thing, that worried me is the constant light in dark situations and constant loss of energy on infrared scans. But who am to tell your game. Thermal is the way to go on further and a base next to the ghost tree. )
now you got the most usefull part of your team right back in your cyclops, the drill sergeant, take care of his needs please )))
Swiming with cyclop is very easy if you use cameras.
Don't worry. Your episodes are not boring. You are doing great. Thank you!
That's what I love the Cyclops for. Like a truck, it's momentarily slower than others, but it's the net-fastest for getting a lot of stuff from A to B. If you wonder how people can have huge bases and stuff, that's how they do it.
The problem is, while it's great that you don't lose any resources while building and changing stuff and I love it, I have to admit that it defeats the purpose of building remote bases for farming. I know it's a bit of a pain, but losing maybe the rarest resource when you remove a component, would encourage you to not just bring one habitat with you and nothing else with the Cyclops and going everywhere. Because having a remote base is a lot of fun, I've found. I kinda have to ignore that it's possible, so that I could have one base down there for farming and a reactor and stuff.
Build a second functioning home base at the deep ghost tree.. using thermal power and connection to your base. It is to power your base.. charge all your battery ,vehicles. 2 moon pools..
Create bed on your Cyclopes and new base
Grind for more resources cause haul reinforcement is needed for your 2nd base in the depths.. create 2 moon pools and multi purpose room, 4 reinforcement walls
I apologize for saying this. But there are 3 alien sanctuary cashes that you can explore. There are also an area that you can explore in the depths past the alien structure and the large skeleton past the Ghost. The prawn suit jet upgrade will help a lot. Love your videos not boring at all
Ah yes, the poop episode! 💩💩🤎
26:16 Glad you made this realization now. I thought I was so brilliant building a charger in the cyclops until I drained it entirely in the lava areas. 🙄 Was a nightmare trying to find air again lol
1:37:20 I predict some curse words in the future when dealing with these little a holes 🖕
1:47:53 This is quite literally impossible. 😆
1:55:20 I CACKLED at this. WHAT ARE THE CHANCES?! The shallows are a lot more dangerous than we expected 🤭
Since, at this point, you have finished the game, I'll say this: you can keep 10 animals in the Alien Containment at a time, and they all remain non-threatening to the others. I have both predator and prey fish inside a two-story containment and they get along fine. 😊
Everyone tries to recharge the cells from indie the cyclops, lol.
Don't worry, it's good episode)
But sorry, little hint - when your cyclops going to power down - remember that butterbutt also use powercell
It is amazing how loud tiny things can be when they hit the cyclops. Drove me nuts the one time, there was this repeated banging. Finally figured out I'd parked over a brain coral and the air bubbles were just that loud.
Off the top of my head, I think it might be worth re-reading the data on the containment unit. Pretty sure it has some useful info for your collection.
Many of us fall into the cyclops power cell recharge cycle debate.
Ooph I got the cyclops stuck between two rock walls once. Not fun.
Nickel is the reigning 4546B hide-and-seek champion.
@27:55 This is why I always use the armor upgrade. It removed most impact damage from the smaller fish. It technically cuts the impact damage in half, but I guess its enough to negate most of the fish damage completely. I think the Spadefish will always do some damage when it's equipped.
really enjoyed this episode! laughed out loud multiple times at all of your antics and interactions with the creatures :) excited to see the end of your journey soon!
Lukael - don't spoil the game / tell me what is going to happen pls
Also Lukael - you suggested I should do this but I don't want to cuz I don't know what will happen
😂 Love ya man, keep having fun and remember - if you don't save after something bad happens, you can just re-load
My questions are always rhetorical unless I specifically ask for an answer in the comments😄
I can't wait to see you meeting the empress, she is the best.
I'm preparing myself to cry (again) as I always do on her part of the story. 😂😂
Ahah I called her the Empress too!
@@LukaelPlays
A lot of people do! I have seen at least 3 or 4 people call her that.
Don't know if you looked back at these, but you can access the storage inventory for the docked craft on the cyclops through the panel on the wall next to the hatch that accesses the docked vehicle. There is a storage icon button you can press.
"The prawn suit seems like it'd be a little too slow" lol yeah you'd think that, but it is by far the fastest vehicle with grapple arm and jet upgrade. The grapple arm is literally a prawn suit catapult. I know you already finished the game so I don't feel bad commenting that lol. I've watched every episode and have enjoyed watching your playthrough quite a bit. I've played through this game 5 or 6 times and you've found several things I never knew about.
A reference back to earlier episodes... you were confused why we told you to include resource gathering in your videos even though it could be considered boring... its just that the nature of this game is so exploration based and you have things like "What Are You?" that just happen. Even when you are just farming, something may happen and we want to make sure you catch your reactions in a recorded form. I know you realized that we dont actually need every second of the playthrough, and you did some fancy edits when you were gathering resources. Look forward to seeing the rest of the playthrough
I'm always recording, even when doing boring stuff, just in case something unexpected or funny happens so I can include it in the videos!
Lukael: "Let's build a power cell charger in the Cyclops!"
Me: "And what would power that charger, exactly?"
Lukael: "Well, the power cells in the Cyclops of course!"
Me: "So you would drain the power from your Cyclops cells to power another cell... for your Cyclops!"
Lukael probably thinking that's brilliant: "Yeah, that way I'll never run out of energy!"
Me imagining Lukael's intense staring at his webcam, after realizing there's a catch: 😂 (joke aside, I think we'll all done it)
In a very early build of the game, that actually worked. It was fixed in an update but I still did that in my playthrough in order to make a 'bigger battery' (with a little manual switching needed) long before I found the blueprints for the real one
OKAY BUT in THEORY, because of the Power Efficiency module, it SHOULD work, right??
@@LukaelPlays I could be wrong, but I believe this actually did work at some point, but I think one of the updates changed it. I'm willing to be corrected, though!
@@normalgamergal Yes, it did! There used to be a "Power efficiency module" for the cyclops, which basically made everything that took power from the cyclops take half as much, including power cell chargers, letting you infinitely recharge power cells. Because that's obviously too powerful (and silly :P) to be left in the game, they replaced the upgrade with the "Engine Efficiency Module" so that the power bonus only effects the engine, and not other things like chargers, removing the exploit.
Don't worry though Lukael, you might not be gaining power by charging the power cells, but you aren't losing any either ;)
@@LukaelPlays All you got to do is add one or two more power cells into the rotation and it works. If you stick with the original 6 and try to transfer the power that way then it doesn't work. (You have an extra in your lockers)
"I can't not make sound" he says forgetting the cyclops has a quiet mode button on the right
From this episode on im looking forward to the moment you find out max depth of a vehicle is on your screen the whole time ur in a vehicle 😂
No spoilers here, but the Sulphur you are able to get, you've just kept missing it, or mistaking it for something else. But you are definitely capable of finding it with your current equipment. Keep your eyes peeled.
Not boring bro,its part of the process cant wait for episode 13
You can attack small predators to force them to run away from your base. And they stay around the way you leave them. So just push them away from your base. They stay away if they are far enough.
Attacking my children?? 😨
25:30 Thought experiment: what if you had an RV that could run your appliances off of batteries. And then you plugged in a battery charger to the RV and hooked it up to your RV batteries... EDIT: 26:16 Theeeere you go. ;)
The power cell charger in cyclops loophole was a thing early in the development of the game, but they fixed it.
Not sure if you ever found it, but there is a thermal charging module for the cylcops so it will help if you bring it deep. But in general I just tend to bring an extra set of cells in a locker.
Driving the cyclops without using the 3 cameras is not fun for sure. And you can sneak past every leviathan by going slow and/or using "silent running". Just keep in mind using SR also drains battery faster. Going slow also use far less energy per distance traveled. You can go quite far using slow speed.
By your comments you seem to think in the traditional way of using force to kill what you don't want instead of avoiding it or incapacitating. Subnautica is different in this aspect.
You can easily kill even a leviathan with enough patience using the Prawn as its punch and drill arm do quite a bit of damage. Takes maybe like a minute to kill a baby ghost leviathan with constant drilling and punching.
This episode was not boring, not at all!
I was anxious watching you somehow get your Cyclops out of the depths.
You're making great progress!
As the Captain of your ship (and your channel) you have to think about crew moral, lol.
Your edit was great, the trumpet (or is it a coronet?) sting from the old Batman series, the musical montage while gathering resources....
I didn't think you were going to get your Cyclops out of the depths, what a nail biter!
If you were boring, we wouldn't watch. 😏
41:59 Alien feeshies! 😜
I’m sorry, I don’t mean make you self conscious. I just thought this was hilarious and adorable. 😂❤
Is that not how you say that?? 🤣
Tip, for tight spaces, use the Cyclop's keel camera
This episode was satisfying
That's nice to hear, I worried a bit that people might find it boring 😅
Use the silent running to go over the leviathans. It makes you invisible for them!
1:44:01 Fun Fact! Pretty much all real world submersibles and submarines are battery powered when submerged.
The only ones that aren't are the few nuclear submarines operated primarily by the US Navy.
Sweet, off work on a Friday and I get to watch an episode fresh out of the oven 😆
Smell that? That's the smell of a nice way to unwind the week off.
As a fellow seamoth enjoyer I absolutely understand your disdain for the Cyclops and Prawn Suit
🤝
Finally my school year has ended so now I can catch up with this series at last :)
For kyanite, you need to find the rare and elusive kyancat 🌈
Lukael, another thought I had since hearing that you've finished the game; before walking away from subnautica completely, how about taking on some challenges that you didn't get to (or maybe didnt get to, hard to say bc we havent seen the final episodes yet lol).
Like finding all the cuddlefish eggs or locating the hidden purple tablet caches, etc. Post-finish, I'd love to see you come back into the game and tie up loose ends. Just a thought!
Early on in the game’s development, you could use the efficiency module and the power cell charger to have infinite power, but that was removed.
I mean to be fair, it does make sense in theory! 300% energy efficiency means that the cells in the cyclops should last longer and be able to power the Cell Charger but, I get how that's kind of an exploit
@@LukaelPlays It's an _Engine_ Efficiency Module - not a Battery Efficiency Module. 😉 It just means that less power gets lost as heat when converted to kinetic energy.
Place planters separate for food like marble melon and lantern, potato .. and another for plants found in the deep.. especially glowing stuff eye stalks, creepy vines deep mushrooms, ghost plants in the deep.. distribute planters for food and ingredient plants to your Cyclopes and deep sea ghost area house.. save time trip back and forth the shallows..
Love the captain hat!
I think of it as Gun Island, since that's where the big gun is that shoots down incoming ships.
Cyclops has cameras for navigation and searching
The thing with bio reactor fuel is that you can actually breed fish in the containment. As long as you have at least two of one type of fish they will multiply. So picking up a few occulus in the pink mushroom area you have both fuel and food.
That's so cruel though 😆
@@LukaelPlays I'm a Norwegian, we eat a lot of fish :P
Flora works, but it's has far less energy per item. 210 for the Acid and Deep shrooms. The best would be the small marblemelon at 280 and Gel Sacks second at 245.
All can be grown for easy access.
Compared to Occulus with 630 each.
It's not a big deal though. With 10 solar panels you can run a base just fine, even with the water machine and the scanner room. As long as the bio reactor is the last item built it will act as a backup.
I'm so glad you realised that you can't make infinite magic energy by having a power cell charger in your Cyclops 😂
I made a ton of power cells, and made a locker for them aboard the Cyclops. Then I had multiple power cell chargers at my stationary habitats. I also always kept at least one backup power cell in my other vehicles. I figured if I used a power cell to get somewhere, then another would almost certainly take me back home. Same with food, water and medkits; I always had emergency supplies stashed in all vehicles and habitats.
Then game really appealed to the squirrel in me, I suppose 😂❤
I could never be bothered to bring the Cyclops down into the caverns past the Ghosts, I was too chicken to get near them in something as cumbersome as the Cyclops. Instesd, I loaded the Cyclops up with everything I needed to make a fully functioning base, including supplies for agriculture and multiple power sources. I dropped the Cyclops outside the entrance to the cave containing the second Degasi habitat, then did runs in my storage-packed Seamoth back and forth until I had myself a fully equipped habitat, with an additional Prawn suit called Deep Fried, on account of the habitat it was to explore 😂
Looking forward to seeing you explore the next biome, it's my least favourite 😂❤
Deep Fried 😂 Amazing
Did your Cyclops ever tell you that you are the best captain on the planet? It is one of the things it can say when you board, but is rare.
"You are the best captain on the planet. I'm not even squidding."
I finally caught up to be able to see this episode 30 min after it dropped. 😃
@1:52:55 Reginald is the most nutritious, its +44 food IIRC, Peepers are +32.
You'll never take me alive COPPER!
I'm exploring the Subnautica+ modpack and just got the Cyclops. Excited to try out the new upgrades like the speed modules!
Haven't really taken a look at the mods yet but I bet there's tons of cool ones!
@@LukaelPlays Yep! Subnautica+ is a collection of 50 mods that you can install real easy with nexus. So it's got all sorts of new little things and QoL improvements. I've played the game many times, so it makes it fresh again while I wait patiently for Subnautica 2 :)
1:02:27 OR YOU MAYBE UPPERCUT THE LEVIATHANS WITH YOUR PRAWN SUIT WHICH DOES A WHOLE LOTTA DAMAGE
Favorite youtube person EVER for that classic batman edit 💯
You can stack multiple storage upgrades
Treader rhymes with redder. :) Tread is a synonym for 'walk', or travel. Treads are also the grooves on car tires and, sometimes, boots
Finally, a resource gathering episode! I spend a lot of time doing this, I keep one large locker full of each resource type. Lead is the most difficult thing to find. Other than nickel, but the whole game you barely use any of it. I think I find more random stuff like wrecks on my resource runs, than by following the game's clues. There are a few biomes that you may never see if you only go by lifepod radio signals. But resource hunting is necessary for me, because I like having a second, larger base that gets decorated. Sometimes a small outpost down around the 800 meter mark, between Disease Research and the Cove Tree. It's just nice to get out of the Cyclops to be honest, despite how large that sub is, it just feels claustrophobic. Zipping around in the Sea Moth is much more enjoyable. The game sets you up in such a way that you can do everything needed with just your starter base. But some people who put 100 hours in build in every biome! I get bored of playing before I would go that far
I am not sure, but I think the only way for the water purifiers to not draw power, is to leave its inventory full
Good episode!
Oh man, I know I pronounced Treader wrong this entire episode for some reason 🤣
@@LukaelPlays the episode before this I could tell you weren't sure. I was surprised no one complained about it and wanted to know why you didn't have a Doctorate in English Composition. 😂 edit done
So I mentioned before that there are two creature eggs that were never integrated into the game but can be spawned in using console commands. Those are for the shuttlebug (item jumperegg) and, believe it or not, the reefback leviathan (item reefbackegg). The reefback egg actually shares a model with the egg for the spadefish... which is interesting because the spadefish is the only fish in the game that has eggs but also can just be picked up by hand. But yeah, the shuttlebug and the reefbacks will hatch and breed just like any other fish if you spawn them in. Fully functional, just not implemented in the game. Very strange.
Love the batman edit 😂
Don't be discouraged thinking about your content's meta-analysed youtube "performance". It's all part of the Subnautica experience we love and look for; it's all part of why we like watching you go blind into gems of games to share those precious moments we crave with you. Just enjoy yourself in the meantime. :D
And soon the search begins
i just put out a comment without backseating so its less of them in total 😅 like ur videos and playstyle keep it up
Cyclops is pretty useless without the thermal reactor. I only use it to craft something important to finish the game.
You'll need grappling arm and drill arm , thruster upgrade for your prawn suite. Escape warpers and leviathans will be a breeze in the deeps when you farm resources.. punching is futile and you'll just have to suck it up and shug Leviathan class predators.. thank me later
The cyclops is much easier to pilot if you learn to use the external cameras and switch between them to give yourself a view of where the different parts of your sub are. Its weird getting uaed to it but once you do the cyclops is incredibly fun to pilot.
1:05:30 It would've totally be within power of the programmers to violate the 2nd law of thermodynamics. I'm glad they didn't, for immersion (wink, wink) purposes.
PS : garde en haut le bon travail. :p
It will be grindy but it will all pay in the long run
I see a sea treader picture and the episodes name is farming... Oh Shit
@1:17:05 There are 3 or 4 ways into the Lost River biome IIRC.
Would love to see you play Prey 2017. It has its flaws but with your focus on the lore it would be great!
Excited for that one!
In all actuality, when equipped with the grappling arm, the Prawn is faster than a Seamoth, if properly piloted.
What's the hurry? Running the Cyclops at the slowest setting consumes SUBSTANTIALLY less power than standard.
Minor Spoiler: You should really look for the "Prawn Suit Grappling Arm" before going down the Lost River.
11:19 it is definitely NOT fine. You must build all the upgrades! 😜
I find it odd that you got comments that called acid mushrooms inefficient for the bioreactor. They have a high energy value and is very common, making them efficient for powering your base.
That's what I think too 😄
yeah, they are often right outside of the hatch of a base, it doesn't even take a minute to refill. Also way more realistic than growing full size trees in 24 hours with fluorescent lighting
@@LukaelPlays i think they just mean that the acid mushrooms will not respawn once you use them and you will run out. plus also a grim thing since you are basically an invasive species on the planets delicate ecosystem and are probably ruining some kind of ecological lifecycle. i feel like its a better prospect to grow your own food cos its only a little more bothersome
@@faaridfarooq That's what the growbeds are for; growing your own resources instead of continuously taking from the environment.
Yeah, a lantern tree right next to the bioreactor makes a nice power source.
I forgot if you can fit both in the same room or you need two rooms.
There's a mod for MK4-5 Seamoth depth module if you want to go that route.
